If I am a sword, I am a sword made of glass, and I feel myself beginning to shatter.

The world is fill’d with far too much pain,

Where everyone seems to end up lying,

Living like this I don’t have much to gain,

Eventually we are all dying,

So many people just cannot go on,

I will explain this all in my letter,

What if it’s a game, and I am a pawn,

Here I am, in my coziest sweater,

After some time, I am ready to die,

With no fear I finally say Goodbye.

&quot;You know you&rsquo;re a writer if your friend tells you a heartbreaking story and your first reaction is &ndash; wow, that would make an incredible plot for a novel. You know you&rsquo;re a smart writer if you manage to keep that reaction to yourself.&quot;
