Suicide Silence
Sick to my stomach
The pain won’t go away
Hugging myself in hope
That the tighter I clench
The more it will disappear
It doesn’t
The pain isn’t taken away
From the medication
The pain calls me to be
Something called skinny
Something called beautiful
The only way to be these things
Is to be dead
Everyone telling me to try harder
I promise you I am
You see
My mind is my gun and
It shot me
And I am bleeding
Bleeding out slow
Dying more and more
From every breath I take
You ask if I’m okay
Both of us knowing
That you don’t really want to know
So I say “I’m fine”
You walk away as if you don’t know me
And that,
That hurts more than anything
Crying out for help
Killing myself with no one
No one around to hear me
Suicide silence it is called
Falling in to the hands of death
You don’t notice me slip away
You don’t notice the scars
Have turned back into cuts
The scars aren’t ever fading now
For they say when you die
The marks on your body remain
You can no longer heal
Your body gives up
Along with your heart to care
You didn’t notice I was away
For a few weeks when I laid in a bed
Not the bed in my room
But the one in a hospital
The one that chained me down
The one that told me I was insane
I don’t remember the last time we spoke
I don’t remember what happened
To be real,
I don’t even care
Because what is the point
In fixing something
If I’m not even
Going to be there
To see you again
What is the point in sticking,
Around when no one
Notices me or the marks
I wear on my skin
The broken teeth are a joke to you
They mean nothing more than a laugh
The pain is not of you caring
You are my father
You are my world
You are the thing I thought
Was always meant to hold me
Never once were you there
Right now I don’t actually care
For my death is called
Suicide silence
