The weight of an empty room

Jodie

All my friends are missing again,
I don't want to talk tonight.
I'll try not to starve myself again,
I know I've let you down.

Through all the hurt and all the pain,
All I have are these four walls.
Pushed in, can't feel the bottom,
It's not hard to feel so small.

Time has run out for me,
Life feels so meaningless.
Nothing is worth a smile,
No one wants me to stay.
I'm not worth any tears.

If every living thing dies alone,
Then what am I doing here?
Take me outside—
I want to see the world
Before I stop breathing.

If you want me,
You better see me soon.

Sorry for my mind running wild,
Salty streaks run down my face.
I'm sorry—I'm leaving soon.
No one can save me now

    A poem of leaving already decided. Powerful. Nicely done.

    I feel the desperate unhappiness in this write, them feeling its best for all if they are no longer around, touching and sad write, well expressed
