"Fall in love or fall in hate. Get inspired or be depressed. Ace a test or flunk a class. Make babies or make art. Speak the truth or lie and cheat. Dance on tables or sit in the corner. Life is divine Chaos. Embrace it. Forgive yourself. Breathe."

All this hurt in me
I hate it so much.
It only makes me feel
Like a bigger screw up.
It's funny how I
Can laugh and smile.
And I just sit here
And I'm dying all the while.
I want to scream
And find a way out.
But nobody will come
No matter how loud I shout.
It's and endless circle
With you and your games.
I guess I should know
You'll never change your nways.
I wish there was
A different route.
But suicide seems
To be the only way out.
When you think about it
It isn't that bad.
Sometimes I think it'd
Be better to be dead.
I reach for help
But none of it comes.
And then I finally think
I am the one.
The one to fall
The one to fail.
The one to never
Be able to prevail.
I am the one to
Try and try.
But I'll be the one
Who is first to die.

That's very grim.  It was pretty good, except that using the term "screw up" in an otherwise archaic poem is generally a no no.
