I come back here every now and again. Im surprised i even remember the email I used. I poured my heart out on paper, I needed to tell the world how horrible I felt. The last poem i posted here is nearly 12 years old. I was 14 and mad at the world. I hated myself and everyone around me. I threatened suicide, but im not sure I ever meant it. I guess i just wanted to show myself that my pain was real. I think that is also why i keep coming back here. To check that i truly was in pain. Even now, so many years later I haven't completely let it go, because if I do, how will I know it was true? What if I forget how life feels when you're 14 and addicted to self deprication? What if I forget and accidentally go back and do it all over again?

Was it all real?
