Mrs. Reilly, I need you the most but you left your extra son behind

I'm trying to find solace in silence

Making loneliness my confidant.

I'm stuck between two good things

And I've never felt more like I want nothing.

The woman who I've been secretly calling mom in my head.

The woman who made the bitter motherless boy into a man, has died

The woman well, the girl, the person whom I know would rather I not call her woman.

The person who loves me without needing to, needs me.

And I can't muster the strength to reach out.

My introverted mess of being is sinking in on itself.

Everyone knows I was a suicidal wreck.

No one knows that I'm getting worse.

No one sees that I've been writing suicide notes again.

I'm obligated to leave now

I'm leaning towards staying.

I'm a dead end kid.

I'm a dead end kid.

I'm ******* hopeless

I'm sick of putting others before my selfish suicidal Thoughts.

I want to play like my predecessors and swing from a tree by my ******* throat.
