I am alone

I am alone
Pushed away into darkness
Darkness…
My only friend
Once I knew love
But love abandoned me
He’s gone
My life means nothing
“Get a grip,” they say
I can’t
The blood is flowing
Out of my wounds
The bottle is rattling
Calling my name
Pain, pain, pain
“Go ahead and kill yourself,”
The devil said
“No one will care.”
I fight the thoughts
“He would!”
I argue
“He left you,”
“He doesn’t care.”
Maybe he tells the truth
Love doesn’t exist
I take the pills
“Goodbye,” I say
Sleep.
