you don't know what it's like
to be this sad,
to be this desperate
to make the pain go away.
you don't know what it's like
to start losing the will to live,
to wish for it all to end.
you don't know what it's like
to be misunderstood,
to get judged even before they know you.
you don't know what it's like
to feel so out of place,
to find your worth and place.
you don't know what it's like
to be me.
