sometimes I dream about how it used to be,
and whenever I do,
it’s always bittersweet
I used to think I’d achieve great things,
that I’d do well in life,
but here I am
sometimes I wish that I killed myself in seventh grade,
that would’ve saved a lot of things from happening,
it would’ve saved people pain
I used to think I was the smart kid,
the kid who had no problems,
but here I am
sometimes I break down,
almost like a robot with faulty wiring,
it’s exhausting yet refreshing all the same
I used to think I was nice,
the girl who was sweet to everyone,
but here I am
sometimes I wish I was never born,
so I didn’t have to endure this ****
I’d rather be nonexistent than to live this
I used to think dying was scary,
I’d pray to God, asking him for another day of life,
but here I am
