Failed attempt

I slit my wrists a week ago today
I didn't even give it a second thought
I couldn't keep my sadness at bay
This is the fate that I have bought

I tell you all because you read these words
Even though they're morbid when emotions burst
The way that I feel can't get more or less worse
Without the will to live I write even though it hurts

My attempt to die didn't go as planned
I didn't tell anyone last Sunday night
Because nobody can understand
These emotions that I'm forced to fight

I want you all to understand that I tried to live right
Even though life wouldn't give me any redemption
I once had goals and dreams that faded from sight
My need to cut myself was my one and only affection

Some of you may read these words and judge me
Say that I'm crazy or insane but in truth I'm real
I state what's on my mind and it's twisted emotionally
These words are my description on how I feel...

Life could be your everything
It could be what you make it
For me it's not anything
That's why my wrists are slit.

I'm sorry.
