Pain Poem by eboni paul

So much pain built up inside
That’s it’s impossible for me to hide
Dieing for someone to show they care
But to stay in this pain-filled life is unfair
I put my ambitions and dreams on hold
On hold until my happiness starts to unfold
I constantly hurt the people I love
By hiding the cuts and burn marks under my glove
To my love ones this unfair
But being drowned in my sorrow I just can’t bare
I only wanted someone to say that they’ll help
Help me win this terrible hand I’ve been dealt
But tonight
I’ve chosen to end this everlasting fight
I have chosen to take my life
I know this is wrong
But I have been living this life far to long
This depression has consumed me piece by piece
And consumed each piece day by day
I’ve lost the battle to change my destructive way
But before I go I have something to say
I never meant to hurt anyone
But I think it’s time to join my father and his son
To everyone that loves me I am sorry
But it’s time for me to leave this land
I have marked the skin above my hand
For the last time
To all who reads this
Teach your kids this isn’t faith
But for me it’s a little to late
