Bethany Swanston Poem
Please don't send me home
It's scarier out there
The world is just too loud
It's too much for me to bear
Please don't send me back
Where everyone is mad
Where no-one understands
And tells me that I'm bad
Please don't make me go
Where I am all alone
I'm begging for you all
Please don't send me home
I promise I'll be good
If you let me stay
I'll fall in line and smile
Every single day
Please don't send me home
I think I'd rather fry
I don't think I'll survive
Don't send me there to die.

Bethany Swanston Poem
Maybe I'm not sorry
That I left you all behind
Maybe this is what I need
And iv made up my mind
Suicide is selfish
Thats what you all will say
But your the ones who make me
Live like this each day
Every second hurts
More painful than the last
And i will forever hate myself
As I relive my past
So I hate you all everyone
To the very end
For all the hatred and anger
That you always send
Cause suicides not selfish
When the world wants you to die
So it's you that needs to ask yourself
Why I had to say goodbye
Maybe your the selfish one
For telling me to stay
But not giving me a reason
Not to go away
Cause suicides not selfish
When you feel like I do
If you felt even half my pain
You would want to end it too.

Bethany Swanston Poem
Why is the silence
Like a deafening roar
I still cringe when someone
Knocks on our door
I wait for your chorus
Your lion like bark
But the silence is blinding
Like a nuke in the dark
I wake up to barking
And half asleep
I automatically go
Check outside for a creep
I wake in the night
And sneak out of bed
So I don't disturb you
Then I remember your dead
Why would the world
Steal you like that
I couldn't tell you I loved you
And send you off with a pat
The world didn't deserve
An angel like you
And wherever you are
I'll always love you my boo

Bethany Swanston Poem
It was cold
In there all alone
I had nothing left
As I picked up my phone
I typed my last goodbyes
Before I lay down to sleep
I said eff you all
What you sow you will reep
I sat there alone
Scared and ashamed
Bloody and dirty
My arms were all mamed
You made me feel disgusting
Like a price of trash
I kept wondering why
But I didn't thrash
I knew it wouldn't matter
You'd done it before
I couldn't hide
I couldn't lock my front door
So I lay there and prayed
It would be over soon
I just stared out my window
Up at the moon
The bleach made me clean
The blood made me sad
The rape made me feel
So effing l bad
I lay there for hours
I cried out for a day
But I knew to just let you
All have your way
I knew better than fighting
So I closed my eyes
And prayed it would be over
Before the sunrise
But it won't ever end
Cause ill never forget
The one single word
You said as the sun set
I'll never forgive
And I'll never be clean
I'll fade away
And never be seen
I tried and I fought
To keep it inside
But they would never believe me
You would say that I lied
So I drank the bleach
And I picked up the blade
To fix the gaping hole
In my soul that you made

Bethany Swanston Poem
I'm nobody
An empty face
Nothing here anymore
Just a blank space
Wandering the world
Alone and afraid
I catch my reflection
As I watch myself fade
There's nothing inside me
Just an empty black hole
My heart doesn't beat
It's just a charred lump of coal
The world doesn't want me
My family is tired
My friends walked away
Left me fighting this fire
I'm screaming so loud
But not being heard
Slowly fading away
Till I fly Like a bird

Bethany Swanston Poem
Liar liar
Pants on fire
That's what you all will say
Unless your pretty
Or cool and witty
Or have enough money to pay
Your on your own
Like a dog with a bone
Fighting an invisible beast
Followed by traitors
Who say there not haters
Like jesus at the last feast
Liar liar
Tongues on fire
That's what you all said
You don't even know me
One day you'll see
Why you don't wish people dead
