Give up?


We all approach the edge, feeling the wind. Looking down at our future. Feeling the end. wanting the jump but hating the fall. I can't tell you not to jump. I can't make up your mind. I can't do anything to change the hurt you feel. I can't put a band-aid on it and kiss it to make it better. but I can tell you that you are not alone. You don't have to deal with this by yourself. You can stand there in silence thinking you deserve this pain, but you don't. Don't let people play games with you. You play the games. Because you are the boss. You are strong. You made it this far.
They can judge and hate. But don't let that bring you down, because they are being judged and hated too. No one can be pleased anymore anyways. You eat. you're fat. You don't eat. You're a freak. You drink. you're an alcoholic. You don't drink. You're a pussy. You read you're a nerd. You don't read. You are stupid. You tell a secret. You seek attention. You don't tell a secret. You still seek attention. You let someone in. you are easy. you don't let someone in. You are too uptight. You smoke, you think you're cool. You don't smoke, you are a loser. you've had sex. you're a slut. you haven't had sex, you are a frigid little bitch. You wear makeup, you are a slag. You don't wear makeup. you are ugly. You can't please everyone. Ever. And thats how the game goes. don't give up on yourself. don't darling.
Don't hide the tears. Be honest.
Are you really happy?

i guarantee someone somewhere will ask you what you want them to ask:
Are you okay?
and they will speak the words you wish to hear:
I'm here for you.

and I am. I'm here.
so now i'm asking:
are you okay?
