What is Wrong With Me?


My Breath... 

I can never seem to catch it. 

My head... it hurts

Why?

Its over. 

I'm alright and he's away so it's supposed to be alright. 

But why do I still cry? 

Why am I afraid? 

I'm not alone. 

But don't touch me. 

Stop touching me!

You're hurting me!

Why do you care?

I don't need your sympathy. 

I'm strong right? 

Strong people can cry?....

Is it my fault again?!

What did I do this time?!

I'm sorry mom, I did it again. 

I've failed you so many times. 

How could you love me? 

I hate my own voice. Dont you hate listening to me?

Why am I here? 

If life was meant for me why is it so hard? 

Why have I failed so many times. 

Why can't I get it right? 

What's wrong with me?...

...What's wrong with me?
