I hate myself

I say that I’m fine

I want to die

Stop

Rewind

I’m nine

I’m fine

I’m happy

With friends

I love my life

I don’t want it to end

How did my life come to this?

I just want peace

I just want bliss

I’m scared

Still I dare

To say,

“It’s not fair!”

I think that people

Just wouldn’t care

If I weren’t there

Because I’ve opened up

And still they stare

Right through me

As if I was just

Thin air.
