I Want To See You Sad: A Short Whatever

· Life and Musings

I just saw a piece of news about a police officer who ended his life here by shooting himself.

Speedily enough, his suicide note and social media account came to light.

Sure enough, he looked happy in all his pictures, surrounded by friends and travelling the world and shit like that.

You know what they like to say when it comes to mental health and suicide: You can never tell, for mental health is invisible. The ones who look happy are actually suffering deep down.

Ironic right? Here's a short whatever:

I want to see you sad.

Or pissed off.

I want to see you mopey, broody and shit.

 

That way, I know you're really happy deep down.

 

Don't smile for your photos. Keep the pearly whites.

 

Don't spread joy. Get angry with everything and everyone like a goth kid so I know that you still have the energy to carry on.

 

Stop faking it.

 

Happiness can be created from a lab.

But pain is at least natural.

 

Let me see you suffer so I can do something about it.

Please.

Stay well.
