I’m not worth it.

I’m just not worth it.

I’m filthy, disgusting, disturbed, wrong, and completely unworthy of other people. I don’t deserve to live the life i’ve got. Others deserve it so much more.

I hate myself.

“Why did she come” I cut in.

“She said she knew something was wrong. Why did you”

“How did she get in?” I cut her off again. My eyes had finally opened, and sitting next to my bed sideis my mother. There are tears in her eyes, and I’m trying to ignore them. I don’t want to think i’d have caused her anything more for pain.

“She kicked open the door. Sean. Why?”
