The Rush

Why does my life have to revolve around self-pity and loathing.  I hate myself for not trying, but when I do try, I hate myself for failing.  When I actually do something right, I hate myself for not doing it good enough.  None of you understand all the pain I've been through, all the tears I have shed.  Some of those tears should not have been, but they burst forth with such ferocity, I could not hold them back.  I am constantly reminded of the quote from Hamlet.  "To be or not to be."  That really is the question.  Is my life really worth living.  I have now but one thing holding me back.  If not for that one thing, I probably wouldn't be writing this.  I hold myself back but somethings slip through.  I cut myself to feel the rush of pain surge through my body.  It's the only thing that lets me know I'm still alive.
