No Pain No Gain
Pain doesn't hurt when it's all you've got,
Suicide is painless.
It's life that hurts,
It makes you rot,
Thank you for making me feel so worthless.
You used to be the reason
I breathed,
Now you just make me cry.
Maybe if my heart stops beating
It wouldn't hurt so bad
There's a small memory that
I hold on to,
To make my life not seem so sad.
I don't bleed from the short shiny blade of release
Or from the small slivers of glass
But from the broken pieces of my heart
That have fallen down unseen cracks.
I'm sick of crying,
Tired of trying,
Sure, I may be smiling,
But inside I'm dying.
Scars and wounds heal with time and sometimes
You can't see how deeply one feels
From just one sudden, sweet appeal.
How to find out for sure if someone is right for you
