Funny

I love how when I say anything about my mental health they laugh, roll their eyes. 
As If my mental health is funny!
Like me, cryin' in my room at two in the morn is laughable. 
Like me, Slitin' my thighs is funny.
Like me, seein' my blood run out of body is what a snowflake would do!
Like me, Writin' my suicide note three times in a month is worth an eye roll.
Like me, sittin in the mental ward for three damn weeks was funny to everyone!
I fuckin' love that Shit! 
It's a good laugh aint it?
Oh no don't worry bout me when I'm in the ER needin' blood.
Don't worry when you're plannin' my wake. 
Don't worry.
Don't Worry.
Don't Worry!
Don't worry bout me, writin' this from a soul who feels like shit.
It's funny right?
People tellin' they kids be respectful but then talk about a human like they nothin', it's a good laugh. 
Republican, Democrat, Liberal, Anti-Abortion, Pro-Life, Pro-Gun.
Snowflake.
Emo.
Go kill yourself.
Faggot.
That's gay. 
Fuckin' slit your wrist-MAKE IT BLEED, MAKE IT BLEED, MAKE IT PART LIKE THE RED SEA!

Man its funny. 

Over 800,000 people die due to suicide and that's not counting attempts. 
What if your child was one of those? 
What if you grandchild, your mother, your father, best friend, your baby sister, brother, aunt, nephew was one of those?
Would you be laughin' then?
Bet not. 
Chew that shit before you spit it out!
