My Last Words Not Literally

My last words (not literally) 
By Asianae Aikey

I don’t have enough time
To say what I want to say
Too many goodbyes
Too many hugs to give
Too much pain

So much I feel on the inside
It’s clawing its way to the outside
It’s ugly and frightening
Twisting out in the dark tunnel
Hiding in the darkness
Waiting for its next victim

I have so many people I want to see
So many people I want to leave
I want to be alone
I want everyone around me
I just don’t know what I want any more
I don’t know where to go
Or who to turn to

Sometimes I wish that I wasn’t here
Sometimes I wish that someone would notice the pain that I am in
That someone would come and try to save me
Be my champion
Be my hero

Goodbye cruel world
Goodbye messed up people
But the last goodbye goes to me
(This isn’t true, it’s just a poem)
