Pain Beneath My Skin

The feeling of being alone never goes away The pain inside always seems to stay I cover it with a smile When I am hurt all the while This feeling is deep inside It’s the only one I really hide I want to let it disappear It would be like letting go of fear I ask myself how can this be This isn’t me But when I look further in I can see it beneath my skin The feeling of being hallow That’s when it is hard to swallow It’s such an easy word suicide But really what can I decide The ending of my life With only just a knife Would be the best way to go Only so many don’t think so I have made my decision This will be the only incision Right above my wrist The blood flows away in a bloody mist I watch it until my vision fades And I drop my blades Finally my eyes close and that’s all I see This is my final glee to be free

Very dark and sad. Its strange when these thoughts go through our head, but to be honest with you we all think about it, but never say we do. If this world could just be easier and fair, then life maybe something to cherish. ~Chris Matt
