I don't know

by Erinlee

All I ever do is live, what if you have nothing else to give? This cynical world just wants a little more of my soul. but what for? so they can use it, So they can abuse it. I have become so weak, To finally have rest is all that I seek. There is a battle within, between life and death, A struggle I feel with every sigh and breath, But I feel like death has already won Now that I know where my dad hides the gun. Why must living cause me so much strife? The pain goes through me like the sharpest of knifes, I am so very lost, But is a time of peace worth the cost? Of my life? I don't know, I don't know.
