My teacher told me today
That suicide is selfish
That leaving the people who love you
Is the most self centered thing to do

But whats really selfish
Is someone making another person
Feel so worthless
That they want to end their own life

The person who made another human being
Feel that way
is the most self centerd
Person on earth

Not the person who ended their life
Just
To
Get
Away

Take me away
To a world where no one gets
Hurt
Used
Broken
Scared
Depressed
Lonely

Take me to a world of my own
Somewhere where I'm
Happy
In good company
Loved
And always smiling

Take me somewhere
That only exists in
Books
Movies
Magazines

Somewhere that only exists
In my imagination

I try so hard
Not to like you
Because I know I
Can't have you

Sometimes I lay in bed for hours
Doing nothing at all
Except thinking of you
And how perfect you are
Your smile
Your eyes
Your laugh
The way you look at me
How you throw your head back
When you're laughing
Just like a little kid
And then I think about how much
I love you


But then I remember you don't
Love me too
And that's okay,
I understand
Who would want to love
Someone so broken and used
Who would love someone like *me

just
          *let
                   *go
