Empty

A poem I wrote when I secretly wished I had never been born

How could someone so empty

Hurt so much

If only I was never alive

Such a missed opportunity

It could have been perfect

Never to be someone's disappointment or excuse

I wouldn't have minded

There's so many ways I could have been spared

Every day is a struggle to live

But a promise is a promise

Damn, I'm pissed I did that

I have the cure

Yet I'm made to suffer

I'm kind of a hypocrite though

I feel like its selfish to live so others don't suffer

Yet if the roles were reversed, I'd feel the same

I've prayed for death

Yet here I stand

Maybe Tomorrow....

I ask for so little
