It has been said, ‘time heals all wounds.’ I do not agree. The wounds remain. In time, the mind, protecting its sanity, covers them with scar tissue and the pain lessens. But it is never gone.


why did you leave me
you didn't even wait
you didn't even care
you didn't even know if i loved you

i look so much like you
sometimes i forget its me in the mirror
when people say i am pretty
i think of you

i don't have any memories
i have nothing

it makes me want to take my own life
just to see what its like
longing to be with you
i get a rope
tie my noose
jump
and hang loose

my heart stops
and my face turns blue
now maybe ill be able to see you

i forgive you for what you did
if you feel any guilt
please
forgive yourself too
i could never hold a grudge against you

in 17 years i have gained understanding
i know what you went through
I've been walking in your shoes

i cant do it any longer
don't take it personally
but i need to start my own path
I've followed yours for too long


in complete darkness
I'm on a journey to the light
the end of this depression is in sight
no longer will i fight
this war has been raging for 17 years
I am laying my weapon down
i come in peace

I'm battered and bruised
my legs want to give out
but i continue to march on
i will win this internal fight

i am tired of living in fear
afraid to live
afraid to die
killing myself one day at a time

no longer will i do this
i am going to live this life to fullest
