I wish I were put in a mental hospital
I wish I were put in a mental hospital.
I wish the doctor would say I need help.
I wish my teacher would tell others I won't be around.
I wish my clothes turned into a hospital gown.
Because, maybe then, people would know the truth.
They would know I wasn't joking.
They would know how hard my life is.
And mainly, because I could finally have a place to feel alive.
I wish I successfully committed suicide.
I wish my parents would realize how many signs they had ignored.
I wish my friends would start to actually worry.
I wish my mind would disappear forever.
Because, maybe then, people would know it wasn't a joke.
They would tear themselves apart for not seeing it before.
They would say nice things at my funeral.
But mainly, Because I finally wouldn't be alive.
