The letter

Epistula

By Skippie PetrovaPublished 5 years ago 4 min read

Dear, reader

Whoever is the one unlucky one to have opened this letter I am sorry. I did not want it to end like this, But it is the only way it could have ended. You see I had no other choice. I knew nothing would help end the pain and I could not go on like this anymore. No one cared enough, no one tried to help me. The demons got to be much. The woman I loved left me and took the only piece of hope, the only ray of light out of my dark world in this never ending hell. As I sit here writing this to you even though I do not know who will be reading this or if anyone cares enough to read this and know why I did what I did.

March 3rd

Everywhere I go bitches always know that the party fellows.

I didn't do anything to throw away my life. I just liked having fun. I didn't care if I lived or died because no one else did. I was happy. We were the strays making the most of what we had.

My family had ‘my back’. It wasn't what I needed though. It was suffocating and fake.

March 4th

I am nowhere,

If i am here without you

Even if you take it all away

I will wait for you,

Even when the light begins to fade

I’ll met you in this broken place

I see all the pain and scars that left you cold

Through the storm that never goes away

Don’t believe all the lies you were told

I’ll be right here

When the sky falls

I’ll show you the way home

March 7th

Everything was going so great in my life. But you made me feel like I had a reason. Like I could be happy. And the universe had to remind me what I was. I came into this world on an accident that's all I am and that's all I'll ever be. I’m not mad for happiness. I’m not made to feel loved back I can only give it. I felt like a human being that day. Life is supposed to be a bitch but it doesn't even give me a fighting chance. I’m just so tired of swimming for the shore when there is none. I'm drowning in refuse. I'm stuck here with everyone's backstabbing bullshit. I'm just meant to make everyone else better. There's nothing else I can do anymore. And i don't know when it will all end. I wasn't supposed to be convinced I wasn't supposed to be born. I don't know why i am still here. Life has been trying to kill me since day one but hasn't yet and i don't know why. Im tired from the cock n ball tourtre i'm at the end of my game but life is just getting started with me. I am here waiting for my death trying to let others know that they are not alone and I understand. The pain, the hate , the rage , the never ending sadness.

March 16th

It matters to me who is saving who because when everything falls apart, I want to be able to look into my eyes and know that at one point someone saw something in me that was worth saving. That i am human. But then again, you never did really believe in me. You used me and destroyed me so whatever you gave me, that worth , happiness , hope was shattered and buried in a place that no one not even myself will ever be able to get back. You throw me away like i was nothing like everyone else does now you can't stand the sight of me. Well baby welcome to the fucking club.

March 22nd

You say god is really but

I disagree

Because if that was true then

I would be set free

Running from something that's killing me

Dealing with such an uncomfortable feeling

pain just to feel again

April 4th

Would you love a creature like me ?

I try to disregarded the things the voice tell me to do

But i'm so high on misery

Is it time to lay down and die

Living in the ruins of a dream

I cant believe i am actually meant to be here

Is it time to close my eyes

April 6th

You need to slit your wrist and go jump off a bridge

Fucking kill everyone

The beast inside is alive

And ready to feed

So where the fuck is your god now

April 12th

Isn’t beautiful the way we fall apart

How broken we are to the things that,

Hurt us all,

The permanent scars

Its magical tragic the way we break our hearts

April 16th

IF life is but a dream i want to

Smile all the time in my sleep

April 20th

Who’s gonna pick you up when you fall ?

April 22nd

I've got my finger on the trigger

One bullet in the gun

And I'm spinning the revolver

Thinking this could be the one

I'm dying

To be something more than a memory

April 24th

Am I worthless?

Am I filthy?

Am I too far gone for a remedy?

Where's my happiness?

When will it all end ?

April 26th

If I reach out

Can I trust you? Will you help me see the light of one more day?

April 28th

Another six months I'll be unknown

Give all my things to all my friends

Please tell mom this is not her fault
