Dear Mom, I Think I'm Suicidal

The life of a person living in the shadows of suicide.

Dear momma,

Did you know I was suicidal?

Momma, this isn't a letter of reconcile.

This is a goodbye.

I don't think my life means much.

Momma, don't you agree?

I know when you're around me.

You can smell the insanity.

Let me fade away into your conscience.

Sometimes I wish I never existed.

I mean, look at me.

A useless heap.

If I'm gone,

you wouldn't have another mouth to feed.

Momma, can't you see I'm bleeding?

The constant fights with the Devil

have their penalties.

I've been gone for hours and no one's noticed.

Hiding in a field of flowers,

all withered and dull,

don't you get it?

Momma, I'm the essence of death,

a contradiction of creation at its finest.

Please, momma let me die.

Give it a week and I'll be a distant memory.

Momma, the world will continue without me.

Momma, wouldn't you feel serene if it were wrong.

Sing me another melody before I go.

Momma, I feel The Reaper's scythe on my throat.

My body is getting cold.

My colored skin is becoming pale.

Life is falling apart now.

I was never good at puzzles.

Momma,

these suicidal thoughts talk often,

the whispers in my sheets,

hushed tones with a sense of urgency.

Momma, don't lie to me.

You say you love me,

but how can you love your demons,

vile, twisted beings.

The Reaper has done his work,

yet the world still hasn't stopped spinning.

Momma, it's been days.

Momma, it's been years.

Momma, I've been watching,

and everyone is still smiling.

My hourglass has been shattered.

In the end, no one shivered

No one cried.

No one begged God for my resurrection.

Momma, take care,

you're free of your demons.

Don't you see?

My death was a blessing...

Do as I say, not as I do.

Your eyes widen in horror as you stare at your phone. Beads of sweat begin to saturate your palm as your fingers tremble in fear. The illuminated screen reads, "Missed Call: Mom."

Growing up with strict parents, you learn that a few things go unsaid. Manners are everything. Never talk back. Do as you're told without question. Most importantly, you develop a system and catch on to these quirks that strict parents have so that you can play their game and do what you want.

"Friends" maybe didn’t have everything right or realistic all the time, but they did have enough episodes to create countless reaction GIFs and enough awesomeness to create, well, the legacy they did. Something else that is timeless, a little rough, but memorable? Living away from the comforts of home. Whether you have an apartment, a dorm, your first house, or some sort of residence that is not the house you grew up in, I’m sure you can relate to most of these!

There is nothing quite like family.

Family is kinda like that one ex that you always find yourself running back to (except without all the regret and the angsty breakup texts that come along with it).

No matter how long your class is, there's always time for the mind to wander. Much like taking a shower or trying to fall asleep, sitting in a classroom can be a time when you get some of your best ideas. But, more than likely, you're probably just trying to mentally cope with listening to a boring lecturer drone on and on. Perhaps some of the following Aristotle-esque thoughts have popped into your head during class.

Bob's Burgers is arguably one of the best and most well-written shows on tv today. That, and it's just plain hilarious. From Louise's crazy antics to Tina's deadpan self-confidence, whether they are planning ways to take over school or craft better burgers, the Belchers know how to have fun. They may not be anywhere close to organized or put together, but they do offer up some wise words once and awhile.
