Pain

Pain is a mental illness that lives in so many lives. Let’s start by saying times have been tough when you have nobody to go to. Losing a loved one especially at a young age is frightening. Losing them knowing they’re in a better place with no harm. The harm is over. No suffering for them but you are stuck with pain. The girl that you loved didn’t love you back is also another type of pain. She was a page in my book but I was a sentence in hers. After all the pain goes away trust me you’ll get over it.

Changes In Color

As I get older it seems like there’s not a lot of care into my days of life. I remember every Christmas I wanted like 10 things, now I just want a pair of black Nike socks and maybe a Xbox game or two. School was a place to show off your style/personality through clothes. Growing up I always wanted to dress clean for school. Wearing a red nice shirt with jeans, and now I’m just eh black on black looks good. I’ve always had a love for black. It’s mysterious and eerie. When I wear black I think I’m a new person. More bold and confident.

Did You Know

Did you know she cuts her wrist on a daily to take away the pain that you caused and that she’s socially awkward because you’re a spitting image of her father who beat her when she was younger. Every night she sits there and dreams someone will come and rescue her from the pain and that you caused and that she will find true love again. One little hello from someone could take away her pain but she’s socially awkward and too scared she’ll get hurt again. Society has taken the best of this girl because she is not popular and nobody wants to read her book because her cover looks too boring.

New Future

The advice I would have given myself five years ago is that everyone doesn’t seem to be as they say they are. One day they’re your friend and then the next day they aren’t. People come and go as they please. People don’t want to see you succeed at anything. People use you to get from point A to point B. Instead of following people be the difference in society. Be the real friend that that one person never had. Everyone knows that one kid that doesn’t have any friends. Go and sit by them and ask them how their day is going. I bet that will make them think that you care about them. Little did you know they were going to kill themselves, but since you said hello they feel like they belong in this world. One little hello can save a life. Be the difference in this world. Be a leader and not a follower.
