Talking To Myself

Talking to myself and i feel,
Despair.
What has gotten into me?
Perhaps i'm confused.
I cant see,
The air isn't there;
I wish i had someone to talk to,
So i wouldn't hear this voice anymore.

Why must i creep
Into the corner of my mind,
Where an echo turns to thought of suicide?
I can't stand this,
Go away.
I've been there before,
And i don't want to return.
Shutup!
Please!
I wish i'd never done it,
All of this;
It's left memories i can't let go,
They hurt,
Still burn in the back of my skull.
Will they ever leave me alone?

Maybe i want to die...
Maybe i should leave everyone...
Who could bare knowing,
They have a sick friend by their side?
I would do the favor,
Of saving you from myself;
At least one less crazy in the world, right?
I just wish i could've done better,
I've let my dreams wash away with the tears.

You would love me still, wouldn't you?
I'm sorry if i leave you wondering,
It's not my intention;
I'm sick, weak
And it pains me to leave,
But i have no choice.
It tells me i'm right,
That i ought to go;
To leave this place and heal my soul.

I loved you all with all my heart.
I've cried and begged to God these thoughts
Would one day go away,
Though it had been in vain;
I hear them countless times again and again.
Now all i ever do is wonder,
Wonder of all the yesterdays;
Sitting here with only them,
Talking to my wicked self.

I was very honest in this poem, i hate to be a manic depressive. I get highs and lows so quick it makes me spin. Thanks for reading my poems :)

I'm glad it was :) Life can be difficult sometimes especially if you've got problems in the head but maybe if you look for the good things and keep them close, this whole thing might just be worth all the trouble.

Thanks for reading. I know, suicide's a tough thought but you have to realize once it's done that's it, there's no going back. Give yourself time, there's always a shadow where the sun shines.

Do not despair The Almighty God forgives those who seek him

I have faith in Him to guide me across the river through day and night so that i may return once again to the place where i belong. I've done wrong but i do wish to correct my mistakes and be given a second chance so that i may yet do something for the world.
