Help Me

I'm falling...
into a bottomless oblivion I couldn't have possibly imagined,
I'm gasping...
for the breath of life into my slowly collasping lungs,
I'm struggling...
to stand on firm ground so again I can move forward,
I'm screaming...
with the pain of realization I'm stuck in a loop,
I'm crying...
in broken sobs that violently shake my shoulders with harsh reality,
I'm stretching...
for salvation that teases me through cracked lips and telephone wires,
I'm pleading...
for guidance, not forgiveness so I can release from this bad Karma,
I'm begging...
for understanding of what I can do to reset my balance,
I'm dozing...
to catch up on my lost sleep filled with moments of regret,
I'm crawling...
through broken glass that scars my already tattered skin,
I'm bleeding...
my emotions, my thoughts, they are scattered and splotched,
I'm resting...
because I need my energy in order to evolve and advance,
I'm smiling...
because I finally understand.
