So Why Try? Poem by Marissa Dunken

Each breath i take i realize my life is not wanted..

I try to shove this pain off with a smile.

But my surroundings remind me, my life is not wanted

every move i make, replenishes me with this pain.

This past comes to haunt me, what did i do to deserve such punishment?

was it the way i brushed my hair? or the way i loved to talk? perhaps it was how i wore my clothes..?

I know i wasnt perfect but youu took my childhood, now ur trying to take my life.

Everything is just pulling at my feet.

I feel like no one cares if im breathing.

Each breath i take i realize my life is not wanted..SO WHY TRY? ! ? ! ?
