Just Kill Me


The tears that fall from my eyes,

they land on my pillow every night. 

 

The thoughts that circle in my head

make me dizzy. 

 

The blanket that I pull over my head-to hide from the world-is slowly ripping. 

 

The door that I lock to shield everything out, is never opening. 

 

The window I wish to jump out of, will never let me. 

 

The walls I stare at every day, will never know me. 

 

The tears that fall from my eyes

they hold my sadness, that no one sees in me. 

 

The sadness that creeps up and consumes me. 

Can someone please just kill me.
