TW// Mentions of self-harm, suicide217Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkzrnhYKEq9

AN// I wrote this yesterday for NaNoWriMo, and thought I'd enter it here.217Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaAv24f4eyW

Would it be better

If I just didn't matter?

If everything that I did

Didn't end up broken and shattered?

217Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw8ZtClBkcv

I try my damn best

Day in and day out

But my very best efforts

End up clouded in doubt

217Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9XSzQ5ut3r

Perhaps you'd be happy

If I was just gone

Taken out of the game

Instead of just being a pawn

217Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ11drgJsUad

When will you realize

I did all that I could?

If my blood is all spilt

Will I have done what I should?

217Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzmSrtCCalC

With a gun to my head

Will you still tell me I failed?

With a knife to my wrist

Will you still say that I bailed?

217Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8XVQcGIObC

To you, I'm just useless

Can't do anything right

And I guess it's just true

I just don't want to fight

217Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBdfc1lt4HT

So I guess that's just it

No 'ifs', 'ands', or 'buts'

I'm the useless daughter

And you're completely nuts

217Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3t7bgaILN4

So I'm sorry, Mom and Dad

Well, maybe not the latter

I'm sure you'll miss me when I'm gone

But remember:

It doesn't matter
