What if I died?
Would you even cry?
Would you even care?
Would you even notice me not being there?
Would you grieve over my death?
I mean really grieve?
Would you even miss me being "the boss"?
Would you really mourn my loss?
You see, I doubt you would.
Because we never really were tight.
We'd bicker, yell, scream, and fight.
I never told you that I needed you.
I thought no one cared.
No one ever said "I love you."
I thought no one was ever there.
Or would you be embarassed?
Be ashamed that we were friends?
Would you be afraid to walk in the hallways?
For fear of hearing or being asked that question
"The one that killed herself, was that your friend?"
What would you say? I wonder.
It doesn't matter though.
I don't know if you need me
or ever even needed me.
All I know is that I needed you, need you, and
will need you.
I'm telling you "I love you."
Because by tommorrow,
I won't be with you.
no I am not going to kill myself, sometimes I just have pent up angst that needs to be let out creatively...through poetry... I don't know. This is my release. It helps me cope and I just want to thank you all for being there for me. I appreciate the comments and love and I reach out to anyone that has ever felt this way before. I know.. Life is hard as hell sometimes.

I feel this wa ALL THE TIME.. I jost got my friend stolen by a horrible person, before tha I have up my main friends be with her then she basicly followed someone else and I feel like everyone's better than me in everything and I'm the middle in beauty ,drawing ,singing, and so much more. They always act like there horrible to make me feel better but I always feel suicidal, I will never kill myself but I just always feel depressed and suicidal.This poem is very relatable in so many ways and I thank you for being another person feeling this way and not just me being lonely.
