Scared Poem by ashley dickerson

you don`t wanna be like me
with so many tears you can`t even see
what i do when i lock myself away
not wanting to breathe another day
alone in a world where no one cares
flinging myself down mental stairs
drowning in my feelings cuz i`m in too deep
i whisper my secrets to my pain
coming down in scarlet rain
caused by my faithful tool
tell me now am i a fool
do i need to stop this habit i can`t break
how much more can i take
i`m scared to tell you what i do
i`m tired of dissapointing you
but i don`t know how much longer i can hide
cuz stopping is hard trust me i`ve tried
how can i get my head above the lies
that my bleeding heart cries
before i hurt so deep that i die in my sleep
