My Life Story..? Poem by Nina Salazar

There’s a few things I feel,
Things that just make this world feel unreal,
They make me think of suicide and pain,
To never want this life to happen again.

I see a face I don’t know in the mirror,
Tells me every day my time is getting nearer,
Gets me wondering what I ever did wrong,
Why I don’t belong.

There’s always been a pain I shouldn’t of ignored,
A pain I adored…
I never understood until it was too late,
Now for my time I desperately await,
A knife on a table, a death not to bare.
But why should anyone care?

Every day I’m emptier,
One day less to be freer,
No grin on my face like before,
One more face to ignore.

Nothing but pain in my eyes,
When I say my last goodbyes,
A knife, a gun, pills, there’s all,
But a death to recall.

My last words: “To all a farewell,
To life, all the times I fell,
My life I gave,
Now and forever, impossible to save.”
