Numb
I want to disappear from the Earth.
It causes me nothing but hurt.
I want it all to go away.
All you cause me is pain.
Why must I suffer other people?
Why must I exist surrounded by evil?
I wish I was alone on this planet.
All I mean to say is Jeez! I’ve had it!
Everyone and everything is boring me to tears.
This is nothing new; I have felt this way for years.
I cannot stand other people’s voices.
Give me silence instead of their choices.
Why must I talk when I want to be dumb?
Why must I feel when I want to be numb?
Why must I hear the lies from the scum?
Other people…my own Hell…God give me a gun.

This piece is very telling of a mind without self knowledge
I trust this is something you have gone through or know of
It would sadden me to know this is you now
In any case sending light your way
I am not one to critique rhyme I don't feel qualified to do so
I rarely use rhyme in my work but if I may
Some lines or stanzas felt as if the rhyme was forced it seemed to have worked in your favor for this was a compelling write
Your thoughts conveyed to the reader well
