For Me

I do this for me and only me
not because of you
or to make you miserable.

I do this for me and only me
because it's the only way
out of the darkness.

I do this for me and only me 
to make me happy
so I can finally feel
the peace I've longed for.

I do this for me and only me
It's my suicide 
and no one elses.
