Thoughts

Hold it in.
Shut it down.
Tell the world to go away.
Fake a laugh
Force a smile
Just to make it through the day.

Say my prayers,
Say goodnight,
And maybe I'll never wake.
Holding on,
Staying Strong,
And with luck I will not break.

And it hurts.
And it burns.
Now it's tearing me apart.
In a haze,
In a dream,
And I'm not sure where to start.

Don't need help.
Don't need friends.
I am better off alone.
Three floors up;
So far down.
After that, I'll hit the stone.

Life's a joke.
I don't care.
This is what I'm meant to be.
All men die;
Death is truth.
And the Truth will set me Free.

I used to be very suicidal and this is the pattern my thoughts would follow.

Thank you so much. I'm on medicine now and feeling a lot better.

This is amazing but really sad, I'm sorry about anything that's happened to make you feel like this.
