Another day starts another night gone where did the time go? where did I go wrong? missing my former self like a long lost friend but I wish him good health can only reach him by pen I haven't slept yet there's one letter I gotta send can't look in the mirror too tired, when is it gonna end a thousand questions no answers why the **** am I like this? a life is built on little chances maybe it's genetic, fantastic if I had kids and they got this if I had a mind then I've lost it if I can't bare the pain myself how can I share this sadness? but I already do because it's madness for two to my mother, I love ya to my father, I love ya to my sisters, I love ya to my girlfriend, I love ya to my friends, I love ya to the meds, I love ya to my docs, I love ya to my former self, I love ya to the thing I am to the man I was the pressure is pressure and I'm a hairpin trigger something hard yet soft like my wasted brain when will I go off? every suicidal thought has got me caught off guard nobody said it would be easy never said it would be this hard feel like I'm watching my life end from afar, everyday is an outer body experience restlessness got me delirious and I just thought about death again so this could be serious Can't see a way out today chemical imbalances are not okay stopped taking my meds want to lose the fight my way **** what the doctors say it's all well and good to say it helps to talk to someone but I can't find the words today to my mother, I love ya to my father, I love ya to my sisters, I love ya to my girlfriend, I love ya to my friends, I love ya to my meds, I love ya to my docs, I love ya to my former self, I miss ya

To my Former Self
