Lesson Not Learned

I thought about everything walking down a dark hall then I thought maybe I should expose my feelings on paper taped to the wall I have a sickness no cure no drugs I am comforted by a thought my wrists bleeding blood bloody dark sticky ooze covering years of pain and emotional abuse closed eyes deep breaths sharp pains in my chest never a right answer always wrong I guess where is love what is a friend one mistake never forgiven one wrong turn that's why its dead end this place just gets darker the light never begins don't want to be alone just need to get help all my joy has gone only hurt is felt caught in my own quick sand depression if there's anything I learned life's one big lesson

thank you i find it helps to write out my sad feelings i really try to describe how i feel or what i would do if i didn't have a life worth living because sometimes life makes people feel that way but sadness can really make just as beautiful a poem as love....you know?
