Colie Malone Poet Rhyme

Secret

I have this little secret. 
It lives in the back of my head 
It tells me over and over 
I'd be better off if I were dead. 

It rumbles around inside
And consumes my every thought 
It tells me over and over 
Life would be better if I were not. 

There are times that I agree 
Times that I'm unsure 
At times I push it down 
Other times I just endure. 

This little secret in my brain 
This haunting little thing 
It makes me hate myself 
It makes me hate everything.
