Escape the pain

Escape while you can,
run faster and faster.
Escape from me,
Escape from your master.
Run while you can,
hide if you want to.
Just know that I
will soon find you.
One minute, I'm fine,
the next I'm not.
I'm breaking down,
just make it stop.
Why can't you hear me,
are you just deaf?
I'm asking for help,
why can't you see this?
Did you not notice-
the cuts on my arm?
You may not notice,
but it does cause harm!
No friends and no family-
I have nothing to live for,
Therefore, I leave you with
nine last words.
"I'll make a big stain
and escape the pain."
