They teach you a lot in school How to add, multiply, divide, & subtract. But they don't teach you how to say you're sorry for wanting to **** yourself when everyday, people who want to live die. They don't teach you how to deal with the aching sadness, the crippling darkness, & the desire to subtract yourself from this life. I know how to factor, but I don't know how to hold myself together. They can teach you a lot in school. But they couldn't teach me to love myself.
