i hate myself
for hating myself
for feeling so low
in a world far lower.
i see those who cant live
because they have no home
i see those who have no love
the ones who are alone
i see those who have
no reason to live
in a greed filled society
having nothing to give
and i just look at myself
as the blood flows from my wrist
and say "shut the fuck up"
it could be so much worse than this
i need to
get a life
one that has more to it
than ripping through it with a knife
i am everything
someone else wants to be
and i would kill
to be anyone but me-
but the world is cruel that way.
