When my mom said there was no evidence
I couldn't believe my ears
My nightmares were turning to reality
And so were my fears
I was so depressed
So I stayed up at night
Always hurting myself
And wondering if suicide was right
Nightmares and flashbacks
Those were all I knew
But still, I kept quiet
No one had a clue
Attempt after attempt
They would never work
I tried everything
But the thoughts would always lurk
So I took a step back
And I racked my brain
For reasons to get better
And to not go insane
What needs to happen
Is I need to forgive you
Not for you, but for me
I hope you can forgive yourself, too
