Save Me

~That moment when you decide to commit suicide just to see if someone will save your life…~

The words I breathe cling to the frigid air,
And who knows where their journey will end up?
I linger and I curse the people where
My icy fingers place their wretched touch.
Could anyone be better with me here?
Stop all your melodies and let me think—
But when the music stopped, all I could hear
Were plagues of love that rise to watch me sink.
The world that gets along without my voice
Will do far better now that I’ll be gone.
When you stand sadly on my early grave,
Remember what has blown away, my love.
Take to the sky and let yourself be free
From all the shackles placed on you by me.

I can really relate to this.  I feel like that sometimes and it's always really hard, but writing always helps.  Nice work and keep writing!  :)
