When I Am Hurting
It’s easier for you to walk away, than it is for you to reach out to me
It’s easier for you to look away, than it is for you to see the depth of my despair
It’s easier for you to look through me, than it is for you to see “me”
It’s easier for you to distance yourself, than it is for you to really care
It’s easier for you to hear, than it is for you to listen
It’s easier for you to judge, than it is for you to understand
It’s easier for you to label, than it is to get acquainted
It’s easier for you to bask in your joy, than it is for you to feel my pain
It’s easier for you to bewilder at my mysteries, than it is for you to probe deeply into the depths of my soul
It’s easier for me to look away, than it is to let you see the feelings betrayed through my eyes
It’s easier for me to cry, than it is for me to talk
It’s easier for me to walk alone, than it is to risk rejection
It’s easier for me to push you away, than it is for me to be held
It’s easier for me to distance myself, than it is to trust that you won’t hurt me
It’s easier for me to die, than it is for me to face life’s challenges
It’s hard for me to smile when I am hurting
It’s hard for me to talk when you won’t understand
It’s hard for me to reach out when I need help the most.
If only you’d really look at me and see who I am
If only you cared enough to reach out when I push you away
If only you’d hold me, without asking why
If only you’d acknowledge the validity of my feelings.
But it’s the easy roads that are often taken
And so I hurt alone
I sit here upon my bed
Wishing you or I would just die
I slide the blade across my wrist
Tears fall as the blade reaches my thigh
What a wicked game you play-
You make me feel your every emotion
Unless I become numb you're still here
There is just too much chaos and commotion
and yet i cannot fathom the though
Of forgetting you for even a mere day
Not ever just a lowly minute in time
'Cause I'll just end up coming back anyway
Why must I dream of you at night?
And your captivatingly beautiful eyes?
Why must they haunt me in my sleep?
Though in the end it's me I despise
I lay here and think of those eyes
So lovely unique and beautifully bright
I wish to kiss your eyes good morning
And look at them until we say goodnight
You make me sleep in relentless pain
'Cause I know I have fallen for you
A love not quite like the rest I say
'Cause loving me is something you cannot do
I cut myself to feel the numbness
So I don't have o feel you or think
It's better to be oblivious from you
'Cause otherwise I'm always on the brink
Sometimes it feels I'm getting closer
Instead of feeling I'm losing the fight
Just don't give up I tell myself
Because I need to hold you in my arms tight
Then I realize how fucked up I am inside
And wonder how you could ever love me
I'm a monster, unfit to be loved by you
And I think it might be time to set you free
And so I sit here upon my bed
Sliding the blade along my thigh
Then finally reach the realization
it's me who is first in line to die
