He Wants to Die

Reflecting how I felt a little bit ago.

He is known for doing his task,

Never once removing his  broken mask.

 

He is shy and often silent,

At home he is loud and often violent.

 

He jokes and acts carefree,

This is an act for others to see.

 

Alas his eyes do not lie,

They tell the truth, he wants to die.

 

When he's done work, he'll sit and cry,

This is the truth, he wants to die.

 

He's done his act, he will no longer lie,

People will know, I want to die.

Author's Note

I'm not suicidal but I'm going to see a psychiatrist for my depression.

It's really good. I can relate I've been there before. If you ever wanna like talk to someone you can talk to me if you want. I have borderline personality disorder so I get depressed too. Text me or email me or whatever. It's cool. :]

I can really relate to this poem. It explains exactly how I feel at the moment. I've also been to several psychiatrists for depression and I think you should talk to em. Not trying to tell you what to do or anythin. Just worried and they are there to help. If you need to talk to someone hit me up. Anyways, this piece really conveys the particular emotions that you're going through. An excellent read. Keep it up. I hope all goes well with you =]

This is a good poem, but i'm terribly sorry you've ever/still felt/feel this way.
It's truely a horrible feeling.
I like when you mention -he is shy and often silent- , & - alas his eyes do not lie, they tell the truth-
I related these things together, i can relate to them both.
Nice.
