				Suicide (Poem) -

To my family and friends,  
 
  
I can no longer pretend. 
 
  
To be what I’m not 
 
  
My ‘happiness’ hides the fact that I’m so distraught. 
 
  
Makeup covers cuts and scars that are self-inflicted. 
 
  
Weight loss is from being restricted. 
 
  
Black bags under my eyes, 
 
  
They are like a stormy sky. 
 
  
If you ask people who think they know me, 
 
  
They’ll tell you that I’m happy and free. 
 
  
I’m sorry I have to do this, 
 
  
But I hope you can reminisce. 
 
  
Remember that sweet smiley little six year old. 
 
  
The little girl who offered a hand to hold. 
 
  
Not the self-destructive monster I’ve become. 
 
  
I’m emotionally numb. 
 
  
I’m sorry that this will hurt you, 
 
  
But I’m hurt, too. 
 
  
My 14 years on this earth are done 
 
  
Suicide is the answer that’s won. 
 
		
	
		
		
                
		
		
			 
            
                
            
				If clarity's in death, then why won't this die? 
Years of tearing down our banners, you and I 
Living for the thrill of hitting you where it hurts 
Give me back my girlhood, it was mine first 
The axe forgets, but the tree remembers

Wow, this is really beautifully written and I think that people definitely can relate!
 
		
	
		
		
                
		
		
			 
            
                
            
				Do you ever get a little bit tired of life 
Like you're not really happy but you don't wanna die 
Like you're hanging by a thread but you gotta survive 
'Cause you gotta survive

A whisper in the dark; is better than silence in the light. -Courtesy of your's truly.   
My blog is open to all, those whom are easily triggered avoid, it's a story about a girl and her life and how far she has come over the years. If you read it, I hope it inspires you to keep fighting and to NEVER give up!
When you can no longer think of a reason to continue, you must think of a reason to start over.
