Ten Reasons

Ten Reasons

A Poem by Autumn K

Ten reasons why you cannot end up like me
Ten million scars I have inside and out
Nine loves that have broken my heart out of petty trust
Eight pairs of baggy pants to hide my form
Seven visits to the therapist who I hid the truth from
Six letters to friends that have never seen the light of day
Five feet in the ground there's a coffin calling my name
Four times at school I've been a thief
Three incidents of running away from home
Two attempted suicides
And one time I almost ended--

I love this. The ending just leaves almost a lull in the air. Like when a gasp is cut short.. Remarkable

this is really heavy stuff... but very well written. I loved how you counted from 10 to one.
Thanks for your honesty and for sharing. :)
