Help me get through tonight
Help me get through tonight
Can anybody hear me?
I can’t keep putting up a fight
No one is ever coming
not even to help a little bit
Just help me someone
I just can’t fucking handle it
I’m so fucking done
with the fucking bullshit
All these months and days go by
where I blame myself for all that went wrong
and now I can’t stop what’s about to come
She thought I was the one
The last girl I dated
for 3 years and a half
I thought we were fated
to be each other’s other half
I loved her so much
and she loved me too
but I was way too stupid
to take a fucking clue
Couldn’t stop myself
Couldn’t even handle a date
I fucked it all up
and now, it’s too late
She’s gone for forever
not looking back at me
And I’m left with a sliver
of what i used to be
Sometimes, I wish that I could
just turn back time, reverse my fate
And then maybe I would
just make my whole damn life great
but that ain’t fucking happening
I know that’s bullshit
I’m tired of myself
and that’s not fucking it
I sick of living like nothing ever happened
sick of living like I can write rap and
make a living without thinking of you
but i can’t, can’t stop thinking of you
I would have given my life
but I fucked that chance up
wish I could end all this strife
But this love it needs far more than a touch-up
I can’t stop this cycle of terrible pain
It hurts so fucking bad God I must be insane
to think i might be saved
that my love for you
will finally fucking fade
But whatever I do
I’m just getting repaid
For all the shit I dealt to you
all the pain that I caused,
I want to get run-through and through
put my life on pause
and end it forever now
I m tired of trying
and dealing with this
now I’m fucking flying
into the abyss
You put me in charge
here comes a sparge
a literal baptism by fire for the fucking sarge
I couldn’t handle a wife
I couldn’t handle this strife
What the fuck makes you think I could handle my own God-damn life?
Guess it doesn’t matter now
Heavy sweat upon my brow
as I leave this fucking life with one last fucking bow.
No one else needs to
get hurt by me
I’m saying goodbye to the world
as I hang myself with this lea (on this tree?)

I know sometimes writing poetry can be a way to release anger, but if you're really thinking about killing yourself, maybe talk to someone. Many colleges have great counselors, and often therapy services are free or low-cost, especially in an emergency. I know break-ups are the pits; I've been dumped, too. It will get easier, I promise. You have your whole life ahead of you, and there are so many other great things out there besides romance. The world is an amazing place, and it's just waiting for you to explore it. Take a walk. Go around town or explore the woods. Discover something. There's so much awesomeness, you just have to find it.
