Imagine Me Dead

Just a few hours ago I read your letter Explaining to me how you think you’d be better Off dead, that your life is no longer worth living You say you’ve done things that just aren’t worth forgiving The tears that you’ve cried, and the lies that you hide How they eat you inside with no one to confide in I want you to know that I’ve always been here Wanting only to guide you away from your fears If you’d only just let me I’d kiss all your tears away, you never gave me the chance to be near you. So please listen closely my words are sincere you would take part of me if you just disappeared a big piece of my heart that I could not replace along with memories that I could not erase like those moments when I brought a smile to your face you can NOT convince me that you’ve fallen from grace so before you give in take a look at yourself not the “you” who’s depended on somebody else to feel loved, to feel blessed, to feel beautiful inside take a look at the real “you” the one you’ve denied cause she’s screaming inside you “please open your eyes!” please look past this disguise you’ve created with lies there’s a beautiful soul within walls that you’ve built out of bricks of low self-esteem, anger, and guilt If you’d just let me in I could show you the real you with love, unconditional, love that could heal you before you listen to that voice in your head think of how you would feel if it was me instead could you live with yourself if you found me in bed with the sheets stained and soaked with the blood that I’ve bled? Please remember my face when you start to see red When you pick up that blade, just imagine me dead
