Bye

Straight lines
In order
Perfect until one
One jagged line
Searing pain

Too much red
So much black
Losing too much of me
Life pouring out
Time passing too slowly

Screaming, shouting
Its too deep
Went too far
Fear
Anger

Emotions pour in
No escape
Walls come up
Trapping me inside
Help me...

Bye life
Bye school
Especially bye to you
I'll miss you
You will me miss me too

In my last hours  
I reflect on my life
Too much mistakes
Many wrong choices
I wil miss you all

I went too far
Cut too deep
My life runs out
Staining the floor
Pooling on the ground
I only have one last thing to say to you all

Bye
