My One And Only Friend a.k.a My Savior
“What are you doing here freak” they says from behind me.
“No one wants you here” he says.
“No one cares about you” she says.
“You’re better off dead” is what they all scream.
Or is that what I hear.
I don’t know or do I care
Because in the end that is what they really mean.
They really want me to die
And maybe they are right.
May be I should just die.
No one would care.
Just like they said ‘no one would care’ and it’s true.
No one would care if I did die
No one ever cares.
Why do they keep doing this?
Why do they hate me so much?
Why do they want me to die?
What did I ever do to them to make them hate me so much?
I never did anything to them
I have never hurt them
I have never caused them pain
Why do they hate me so much?
They see me cry and they laugh
They laugh at the girl crying in the hallway
Because someone said something that hurt her really bad
They see me with my throat bruised
And they make a joke about it
But little did they know
That was the result of me trying to end my life
That was a result of me trying to end my pain
And I would have to if it wasn’t for her
The girl who ran in
And saw me with a rope around my neck
She ran to me and begged me to get down
And she looked at me like she really cared
Like she really cared if I lived or died
I stared at her with tears running down my cheeks
Tears which showed how truly broken I was
Tears which showed how much I was suffering on the inside
She continued to beg for me to come down
She continued to fight for my life
Even though I believe the world would be a better place without me
She still fought for me
Something no one has ever done before
Shaking my head I looked at the ground
Trying not to believe that someone really cares for me
And really does care if I lived
I hear her walk towards me
But I still don’t move
I feel her grab my arm
But I still don’t look at her
I see her gently undo the rope around my neck
And watch as it drops to the floor
She grabs me and pulls me to her hugging me
Telling me it’s okay
As I cry into her shoulder
As I cry out all my pain
“Why would you try and end your life” she asked
“Why wouldn’t I” was my only answer
I couldn’t really point out one thing that would make me do this
Because there was not just one answer
I wonder why she didn’t let me end my life
Why she didn’t let me hang myself
And why she didn’t let me die
She was the only one I know that wouldn’t let me do this
But I don’t know why
I don’t understand why she didn’t let me kill myself
But at the same time I’m glad she didn’t
Because in truth I didn’t want to
In truth I just wanted it all to stop
For all the pain to stop
I wanted the bullying to stop
I wanted the pain to stop
I wanted the hateful words they shout
To stop
And I wanted to be loved
I wanted someone to care
And she knew that
She saw what I was
The broken girl I was
And she fixed me
She fixed me and made me new
She freed me from the prison I was
The prison where I got called names
The prison where I got beat and tortured
Where I was forced to suffer in until someone thought I was worth saving
She saved me
She thought I was worth saving
She said she became my friend that day
But really she became my savior
Because she saved me from the darkness of my life
And every day I ask her why she didn’t let me die
Why she didn’t let me end my life
And she answers “why wouldn’t I”
