Why

Why

A Poem by TurtleClark
"

i wrote this when i realized i needed to stand up and not be lifeless and take up space when i was on the brink of suicide

"

Alone never to love again

Alone never to sing again

with no one else around

who will hear sounds

the screams the cries

the forgotten goodbyes

 

i could kill myself

no one would care

like im in an invisible shield

that protects them from me

 

i never hurt anyone

at least i never tried to

people i have run from

not doing what i wanted

Very deep piece, and many people would be able to connect with this. It's really quite a horrible feeling to have within, but it's something that we cannot avoid at times.
As for your second stanza, I'm sure there are people who care. It may not seem like it, but I'm positive that there are. If you knew someone, and they knew you, they would have felt bad for your death, trust me on that one.
Amazing job on the poem. Keep it up!
