I Want to Die

I want to die.

I’m tired of trying.

I’m sick of living,

I’m done with lying.

I want to die.

I’m constantly pretending.

I’m exhausted from sobbing,

I’m awaiting the ending.

I want to die.

I’m losing control.

I’m screaming for help,

I’m stuck in this hole.

I want to die.

I’m breaking the skin.

I’m seeing the dark,

I’m letting them win.

I want to die.

I’m all alone.

I’m under the covers,

I’m cold to the bone.

I want to die.

I’m dreaming of death.

I’m lost in the crowd,

I’m despising each breath.

I want to die.

I’m cowering in fear.

I’m dismissing hope,

I’m hiding every tear.

I want to die.

I’m ready to run.

I’m filling the tub,

I’m absolutely done.

I want to die.

I’m wasting away.

I’m choking myself,

I’m tired of today.
