You Must Die

You just need to kill yourself. You have to die. You are worthless. They would be better off without you. Edge of reason bending. You is not me. You is confused with me. I don't just need to kill myself. I don't have to die. I am not worthless. They would be better off without you! They must enter the conversation. Who is you? What is you? Why is you me? When did you enter me? Where are you in me? What needs to die in me? Thoughts of suicide do not mean I need to die. Such thoughts signal the you within me needs to die. You must die within me. This is me talking to you. I will kill you to protect me. YOU MUST DIE! 09/08/17
