I was thinking a couple nights ago how so many people say I can call them anytime, but....you'll get the point

I know they want to help
I know they're trying to
But they don't know what to say
They don't know what to do
So they expect me to speak
And tell them something new

But they don't want the truth
And they don't want a lie
They don't want to hear about
How I lay at night and cry
And they don't want to hear about
How I just want to die

So in the end they leave
Not helping me at all
They don't want to hear me
But tell me I should call
I know it won't be them
To catch me when I fall

I can totally identify with this. It's true. No one wants to know that you want to kill yourself and yet they all say, "tell me what's wrong".

Yes, Ickydog. I'm sorry you get that from people.

I have felt exactly this way.

You express yourself and your deep, gut-wrenching feelings so well.

It helps people to know they are not alone.

Thank you,

Petunia

Ickydog, alot of your poems explain exactly how i feel. I can relate to them so well. Thank you! I've had that problem today, not wanting to tell people how i feel because they don't really know how to react.

Your poem is right to my core.....I too can relate to them so much.....I too have a hard time telling people how I truly feel...
your not alone...take care
