I shouldn't be here

I shouldn't be alive
I shouldn't of been born
I shouldn't of been named
I shouldn't of existed
I should be dead, I belong dead
I belong in the trash too
I shouldn't be wasting up fresh air
I shouldn't be wasting words
I shouldn't be wasting time

(Not a poem!)
Sometimes when the people most like you don't love you, it is a hurt that can cause the greatest pain, and this pain can lead you to hate everything.

    @River Hey, I know I don't know u but I know for certain that U deserve to be here and you're loved no matter how isolated u feel there are always ppl who want u here and who benefit from u being alive. No one should ever feel like they don't belong to live, because there are so many things and so many happy days waiting for u to experience. I've had similar thoughts before and whilst I can't speak for how you're feeling, I am living proof that things can get better (as cliché as that sounds!). We all care for u on here and I hope you can feel happier today because u deserve happiness <3
