Save Me
I thought I was good.
But I’m not.
I thought I was right.
But I’m not.
I believed for a fleeting moment that I was worth something more than what everyone told me.
But I was wrong.
When everything in my world is crashing down on top of me,
Who do I have to turn to?
What do you do
When nothing is right
When nothing makes sense
When life becomes a burden?
I wanted everything
I got everything
But now
I feel as if I have nothing.
I am nothing.
No one.
My heart has been broken
My soul has been ripped from its comforted existence
And my world has been turned upside-down and inside-out.
How do I deal?
My wounds are bleeding
And I’m almost dead.
The blood is soaking the ground
And I sit and cry, wondering how I will ever get it all back inside.
I scream out to everyone
But my cries fall on deaf ears.
They all turn away from me and continue their every day lives
Pretending my problems don’t exist.
I pray each night
To God
That I know exists
To give me a lifejacket.
I need saving.
I’m drowning in this sea,
And my air is almost gone.
I can feel my lungs burning.
I have to take a breath
Before I die.
Please save me.
Save me because I can’t save myself
From this downward spiral into oblivion.
Save me so that I can make myself better.
I want to someday be able to look forward to tomorrow.
