Just some thoughts…
Don’t pretend you’re sorry
you know you’re not
you just like to see me in pain
and i feel like i’m going insane
inside myself i’m slowly breaking down
and dying one breath at a time
it’s torturous, this life i have to go through
i wish i could end all the pain
but suicide is not a path i want to go down
at least not yet
so i suppose you’re harsh words and hatred
will i have to continue to endure
I wrote this a few nights ago. It’s very poorly written because I wasn’t really trying to make it a poem I guess. They were just how I was feeling. I was feeling a lot more too; like i’m feeling empty and hollow and angry and etc. And I’m tired of putting on this mask that I’m happy and having these fake smiles on a daily basis. I only do it though because whenever I’ve tried talking to someone they just don’t understand how I’m feeling and tell me to get over it. Or they get mad at me because I’m being cynical and pessimistic. I can’t really help it though. I often dream about things I wish I could be. Mostly I just wish I could be happy. Money and material things aren’t important to me. I just want to make enough to be able to support myself and my daughter. Sometimes I wish I was never born. A lot lately though. Man depression inhales vigorously!!!
I can’t pretend to really know you, but I certainly identify with a lot of your feelings. Luckily I’ve somehow figured out how to keep the depression more at bay for a long time now. I wouldn’t say it’s gone, but I keep it at the side of my vision and focus ahead on the important things like friends & family. Worst case I just focus on myself. In my heart I know I am a good person.
