I woke up

MrB

She messed with my head

I could be dead

I shouldn’t have woken up in my bed

I wanted to kill myself the night before

I wanted my wrists to be sore

The pain I felt was really numbing

That’s when these thoughts starting coming

I could go jump of a bridge or crash my car

But to be honest I couldn’t take it that far

Because I’m stronger than this

So I won’t overdose or cut my wrist

Because I know I will be missed

By my family and friends and people in my life

It’s not worth ending it over the girl I thought was going to be my wife

Because love. Well it comes and goes

What’s around the corner? Nobody knows

So it’s not worth me being dead

Just because she’s messed up my head

So I’m staying strong and keeping going

No more scars that I’m showing

  • Comment from author about the poem: My poems are a reflection on how I feel I’m currently going through a break up. I now know how people who do self harm feel. Although I write about it I never do it. In fact I think writing what I want to do helps me not do it.
