Not The Only One

By Liath

Not the only one

I know I have some problems
and I know that some times are hard
I want help
Just like anyone else

Everyone has times,
When all you wanna do is end it all
But you can easily solve all your problems by jotting down some rhymes,
Music, poetry, and friends are my love. They have stabled my fall.

Alone in the world
No
You're not
You're just not listening

Take off that shroud
Of put-on insecurity
Abnormality

Get the fuck over yourself
And go have some fun

It's not worth tying the noose
Around your neck
When you can tie the knot
With the girl of your dreams.

I used to be one of you
And occassionally I feel like going back
But I always think of my friends
And of ___________

It's not worth it.

    seems like too many people wallow purposely in depression, this poem was somewhat refreshing and so well written
