Self-Destructive, impenetrable armor

Feedback Received!

I put it in my own head

Spreading like a California wildfire

Unable to stop my own thoughts

I have physical self control but no mental

I won’t flip out I’ll just think you don’t want me

You’re probably busy, but by now I think you hate me

I won’t kill myself but I’ll think about it

I will think about it a lot don’t worry I won’t do it

The thought stands

What would happen if I took too many pills

I can’t get you out of my head

You’re just like me but you don’t like me

Well at least, that’s what I told myself

You want to stay away from me and never talk

I understand I’ll back away

You don’t have to say it out loud

I already said it to myself

I destroy myself

Protecting myself from everybody else

At the expense of myself
