The Night I Killed Myself



The Night I killed Myself



That night I went back to sleep,

I knew I will still have the sensation,

The untold feelings,

For days, months, maybe years to come,

I wasn’t going to complain,

It had no sense,

I was not going to be heard,

Nobody cared!

That night I went back to sleep,

Why bother?

Vertigo will go away, but my feelings kept the same…

That night I went back to sleep,

And I think that night…

I killed myself...
