No More

I wish that all the pain would end,
that all the screaming would go away,
Maybe if it all would leave I'd be happier,
And I would have a better life,
All the fights my family gets into just hurt me a lot,
Sometimes I think the only way out is up,
When I keep all the pain in too long,
It explodes out without any warning,
I cry and yell all through the night,
Wishing I could end my life,
All this pain that I go through,
Cuts deeply into my heart,
The pain from the past is left like scars,
They stay to remind me to be careful,
I try so hard to keep me alive,
But the battle is at its end,
One day I'll find true love and peace,
That day will be when my life has deceased,
The pain will leave without a trace,
and the crying will stop,
The last thing to come out of me will be a laugh,
A laugh of happiness and joy,
Something I've always wished for,
The gates will open up for me,
I'll walk towards my new life with no hesitation,
One look back at my what I use to have,
As I walk right in with a smile
