I am a menace.
I bring with me pain, and heartache
I hurt you, and anger you in ways you never knew could
I taunt you, and harm you in places that can't be seen.
I am a disgusting shell of what I used to be,
full of masks to hide my scars.
I don't know how to love,
only to act selfishly.

I am undeserving of hope
underserving of a job, a school
Unworthy of friends, unworthy of love.
Unworthy of happiness, and unworthy of life.

When can I cease to exist?
When can I finally disappear from existence?
When I'm gone from this earth, do not keep fond memories in your thoughts.

Remember me as I was -
A brutal, rude, spiteful creature, unloving and selfish.
Remember all the times i hurt you.
Remember all the pain i caused
Remember the disappointment, the shattered hopes, the wasted time, and money.
Remember my glare, not my grin.
Remember my scowl, not my laugh.
Remember my cold eyes.
Then maybe you'll hate me and you won't miss me.
Maybe you'll forget me sooner because you want to forget.

Maybe then, and only then,
I'll finally cease to exist.
goodbye
