Writing to Save a Life

[Pandie]

Filling with rage
Crying with hurt
Watching as tears
Soak through my shirt.

Everything yelled
Went straight to my head
Filled with turmoil
From everything said.

Wanting to die
To cut deeper then deep
Wanting to chase
Down pills just to sleep.

Longing to run
And never look back
To leave in a hurry
And not even pack.

Wishing only
For you to see
All of the lies
They said about me.

Hurt from the words
I begin to fall
Just 'cause they thought
They knew it all.

Judged without question
They gave me a mask
And for something I couldn't
Control in the past.

Praying it ends
With a bottle of wine
I write to save
This life that is mine...
