#3 of Poetry

Not a chipper one, I know. This one stems from my teenage years and can actually be found in a couple anthologies.

If it's just not worth living and depression rules your life  
If the pain you feel inside is like your heart is slashed with a knife  
If ending it all seems a way to stop all of your pain  
If cutting yourself makes you feel just a little bit alive  
If others pain makes you feel like laughing inside  
If the fire that you used to feel is really gone for good  
If all the pain that you've absorbed has changed you not to care  
If you're looking for the end of life, look around,  
You're already there.
