Pain

Sitting here wishing I was dead,
Fearing the thoughts running through my head. 
The pain I feel is more than I can stand,
Falling through hell in fire I land.
Everyone I love wishes me gone,
Everything in my life is wrong.
So how do I fix what's broken beyond repair,
And why should I bother if nobody cares.
Everything hurts and I want to explode,
When it comes to pain I've hit the mother load.
With all of this I can not deal,
Nothing in life feels real.
I'm fighting a battle I can't win,
Everything I do an unforgivable sin.
I'm dying inside and can't save myself, 
And to all of of those I trusted none will help.
A bullet to the head sounds like a good ideal,
Because pain is all that I can feel.
Emotions run rampant and blindingly so,
Spinning in circles with no where to go.
Stuck in my head standing over my grave,
I was the one I couldn't save.
