Loathsome Confession
Lately, all I do is hate myself
I look in the mirror, and ask:
"Why am I not perfect?
Why doesn't anybody want me?"
And silently,
I give into the pain
I let it hug me,
Lay me down
In minutes,
Who I was is gone
My whole world goes black,
And I'm nothing
But sadly,
I wake up
Unconciousness doesn't last,
And I have to face reality
There's no one who cares
No one coming to save me from myself
Lately, all I do is hate myself
Yet, if anybody asks me,
I'll say that I'm fine

My whole world goes black,
And I'm nothing
But sadly,

Unconciousness doesn't last,
And I have to face reality
There's no one who cares
No one coming to save me from myself
Lately, all I do is hate myself
Yet, if anybody asks me,
I'll say that I'm fine

sometimes i feel sad to
and all i wanna do is cry
godge out my eyes
to not see pain

"And silently,

Lay me down"
Simple but hauntingly familiar. Beautiful prose.

This poem is gives me chills because it's so breathtakingly familiar. You really caught the concept of self-loathing. A truly lovely poem.
