To Be... Or Not
I want to be
All of the things
That I am not
I hate me
I want to cut me
I want to kill me
Dead
And then
I want to wake up
Wake the fuck up
And get on
With my life
The way that I want to
Fuck it all
Bury it all
I want it all
To fucking end
Give me more
Than I ask for
Please give me
A reason to live
When the choices I make
Are validly fake
I presume
It’s not worth it
Kill me I say
And go on my way
A new me shall arise
Before thee

Hmmm... I know sometimes it may be hard to see, but there are good reasons to live, even when things seem really bad. I just discovered you as a poet on here. You should stick around so I can continue to read your heartfelt poetry!

Processing the past has come to me in waves since I left an abusive relationship a few years ago. I find it helps to write it out for what it is, and that can be a bit raw sometimes. Rest assured, my life is currently much better and brighter than it used to be 😊
I‘m not on DU much these days, thanks for appreciating my enthusiastic pen though!

That is good to hear... (that you are out of that situation). I'm happy things are looking up for you! Maybe I'll see you around :)

Could be, indeed. Alas, the story continues, one page/day at a time. Thanks for reading me.
