All These Questions End With Why Poem by Isaac Helms
All These Questions End With Why
All these questions end with why
How much longer do I have to wait to die?
Asked yourself why didn’t you cry
Last thing I want to say is goodbye
Think of nothing else but you
Many others come but they will not do
Disguise myself to join your crew
An easy life comes to a few
Should I cut myself with this knife?
Should I take my own life?
Leave this land of dismay
No one to hear what I pray
Watch my sanity drift away
More of me dies today
A heart dies with every pound
Want to lie six feet under ground
A person that can’t be found
What was that sound?
I recognize that person’s voice
Threw his sobs and cries
Abandoned and betrayed
And has nothing to keep him stable
That voice I hear is mine
You are young and your poem is very good. You have a knack at writing. Why do you want to die?
Don't die- your poetry is full of emotion and life! Keep up the good work :)

to me, your references to self-mutilation and suicide do not necessarily pertain to you. in my opinion, you were describing the feeling of hopelessness in an ambiguous way. but i may be completely off. that's just what i took from this poem.
