Daddy
It's happening again.
Daddy I'm starting to get sick again.
Daddy I can't eat anymore again.
Daddy I let a boy have control over my feelings again.
Daddy I depended on someone else for happiness again.. They left.
Daddy why won't I learn?
Daddy please help me.
Daddy don't you see I'm drowning?
Daddy I'm so sorry.
Daddy make sure to tell grandma I love her.
Daddy it's getting harder to breathe, I don't know how long I have left.
Daddy I wish someone would've helped me.
Daddy I'm going to go somewhere where I'll finally be happy, please don't be upset.
Daddy it's getting cold and I'm getting very tired.
Daddy you still haven't even noticed the empty pill bottles scattered on the bathroom floor.
Daddy I'm sorry I've put you through so much but it's all over now.
Daddy I have to go now, I love you.
