Try as you might
You will not bleed me dry
Not of my love
Am I suppose to feel anything in particular?
Because the emptiness in me is taking every last bit of my existence.
It makes me cry at night.
And it follows me like a shadow all day long.
And then the day will arrive
Where my emptiness will take over me
And swallow me into a darkness,
Which will be the darkest anything ever could be.
I hide away from the world, yet I expect someone to be my miracle and find me?
Just a thought
I hope one day someone will find me though
Bay
The man
who kept
his emotions
at bay
drowned
in them
all
one
winters
day
Things will be different,

  Once I change.
he said
"I love you"

and maybe
I should've turned
and looked around

because
it's obvious now
that he wasn't
talking to me.

For five years I kept a suicide note in a glittery pink heart-shaped box in the bottom of my closet
Until one day I was strong enough to tear it up and throw it away

This summer I saved a suicide note to my desktop
And I don't know when I'll be strong enough to press delete
To this day,
your name
still hurts my tongue
but I still say it anyway.
Sometimes I like to
hear my soul
gently tear itself
apart.
