Worth It
My brain speaks to me
Telling me horrible things
I can’t erase them from my mind
I remember it all the time
The pain digs deeper into my brain
But I tell myself that it’s ok
I deserve it
I sit alone with my thoughts
Telling me to kill myself
But it’s ok
Because I deserve it
Kill me now
I understand
I’m not worth the trouble
Life goes on
So why should I be worth it
I want to be done
But you all say no
Which makes me stay
Because you guys seem worth it
