Few days are okay.
Some days are fine.
Most days I want to die half the time.
Why am I so empty?
Am I as happy as I seem?
I scream and cry and shout but it doesn't mean a thing.
I know I have a purpose and I know I have cause...
But I just don't believe it, whenever I try, I fall.
So what if I hide within the confines of my room to escape the reality I'm forced to be in?
I don't care if I'm reclusive, I'd rather be that than abusive.
Just leave me alone...
This house no longer feels like home.
So leave me to suffer, I won't ask for your help, you'll tell me anyway that I'm a liar and doomed to hell.
I need someone to hold me, just let me not exist...
Why do I try?
Why do I persist?
Few days are okay.
Some days are fine.
Most days... I truly want to die half the time.
