"Thanatos"

I want too much from
Life, and I see that it’s bollocks
Anyway because it’s not like things would be
Significant if I were to kill myself.  So, should I be trusting
My sight with information that doesn’t make sense and doesn’t
Matter, or should I just go ahead and say “Fuck it, it’ll be ok” for the hundredth
Time?

I don’t have a gun,
And I don’t have a reason to, ok.  I have too much to do to take my life.  Someone
would have to deal with my decision, and they would surely stop me if
they realized what was going on in my cognition.  And I don’t
want to be institutionalized and have that intake
available for records, though I don’t
know if it is.

And they will cry and say, “Please, Austin, don’t do it!  You have so much to live for!”  “So much to live for” is so cliché.  If I’m happy, sad, angry, lonely, excited, afraid, or otherwise, it’s all useless feelings.  I
Try so hard, day to day, and it seems like so many stupid goddamn assholes are excelling at this bullshit.
Mean, come on!  Is it your God that            you are  unconsciously living for?  Maybe I
should ask someone else.      “These            things that have comforted me, I drive away.”
A great line. He’s saved my life    on            more than one occasion by distracting me

from what I’m thinking.  Everything passes, so why bother waiting on death?  It’s natural, would be easier than falling asleep most nights, and thanatos comforts me, like a drug not tried but lusted after.
