just give up

by Samantha Lowe - Scorpio

i want to die
i want to pull my insides out so i don't hurt anymore
just give up
become a statistic
in a world of teen suicides
what more can i do?
what IS there to do?
just give up
just walk away
don't tell me everything will be ok
you aren't me
you can't feel what i feel inside
it's all there
it's all stuck in this ball in my throat
i'm choking on it
trying to get it all up
but it's glued there
in this big mass of confusion and fear
i can't even cry anymore
there's no more tears to shed
i've long gone dry
there will be a better tomorrow?
no there won't
don't tell me that
it's going to be the same as today, yesterday, and the day before that
nothings going to change
life won't get any better
so why not let life end now?

Reason for writing:

    this is how i used to feel. now i know that death isnt the answer. please believe me when i say, life does get better if you try.
