Life Or Death? Poem by Hannah Davies

I can't do this any more
What is there worth living for?
Can't do right for doing wrong
I've been so stupid all along.

Don't know where to turn?
Don't want to cause any concern.
Just quietly slip away
I hate feeling like this day after day.

I'm sorry to those I leave behind
It wasn't your fault, so keep that in mind.
That you for your helping hand
But how I'm feeling, I don't expect you to understand.

It's driving me mad
The constant pain is making me sad.
So many secrets and lies
Too many painful memories and ties.

I will never be good enough
Too weak and tired to stay tough.
I can't help the thoughts running through my head
It would be best all round if I were dead.

I feel so alone
Don't think I can do this on my own.
I don't want to burden others
Can't even talk to my own brothers.

A life of betrayal and misery
Is all what seems to be waiting for me.
I have tried my best
Let fate decide the rest.
