poem about a boy..
you bleed to know you're alive..
on the edge, tingling everywhere
and a relief of inner pain.

Relief from the pain you feel because
of him.

even in the spotlight you are hidden
underneath something that is opposite yourself
willing to give whatever they need.

but what do you need?
love
trust
mythical words that i don't understand
i bleed to know i'm alive
yeah, it might be stupid
but you don't understand
i'm
in
pain
and
you
can't
help
me
you don't love me
throw me away like the mistake you wish you'd never made
forget about the times we had
and let me bleed
please...
don't be my tourniquet
it's not your job,
your life, or your responsibility.

you're not bound to me, let me go
when i pass you on the street
just remember i'm a ghost, and i don't exist
in the halls
the classroom
i'm invisible and unwanted
don't waste your time...
let me go
let me die.
