Hate Myself

For any help, my arms are open.

If this is real, then I feel broken.

I truly just feel hopeless.

All I want is somebody to hold me,

So I hug my pillow and squeeze tightly.

I try to fight the voices in my head.

Instead, I’m thinking back on all the things I never said.

But its hard to reach out for help,

When I hate myself.

Honestly, I know my direction.

I know where I’m running,

I’m not chasing perfection.

I just want to look in the mirror and see my reflection.

I wake up in tears and fall back asleep in those puddles.

I lay where I cry,

I’ve got too much on my mind.

I think about what if I died.

The lies I hide behind,

Like saying I’m fine,

As a person, has me defined.

I lie and say that I try.

But its hard to reach out for help,

When I hate myself.
