TODAY

Today
I sat down and cried myself a river
I was faced with reasons why with life I shouldn't bother
And my heart was overwhelmed with pain
Like the flood from a heavy downpour of rain

Today
I felt till the end of the day I wouldn't last
I questioned how I passed in my class
At me with anger they were so livid
I started wondering if I was truly stupid

Today
I honestly prayed for my death
And wished I had never survived my birth
I know you all will judge me a big coward
Taking the easy way out not moving forward

Today
I sat and wrote two poems
To add to the collection of my letters to them
And writing brought fear and a little relief
From all inside;the pain and the grief
