Letting Go


Thoughts are racing through my head I feel it'd be easier to kill myself dead Should I take my life and leave this place That continues to slap me in my face I dread the moment I wake each day There is no sense in living this way All I want is peace and happiness But my life is filled with pain and stress There is no reason for me to stay here And continue to live in constant fear I think I should let my loved ones know I am giving up and letting go! (Written in 2018...I'm still alive and well)
