Change Isn'T Always Good

He never just goes with the flow
Why is it all he does is work?
He says he loves it so
So why is it not a perk?

He doesn’t love the way he use to
Nobody knows him anymore
Do you see how he looks at you?
He probably thinks it’s a chore

All he wants is just to die
He cuts his wrist and watches it bleed
All he does is make people cry
His pain is no longer a little seed

Now it is his heart
That sits and wallows in the pain
Changing this way wasn’t very smart
He lays there now, feeling his shame

Yikes, Written well but scares me because I found my mother after she did this.
