Save me
I’m walking down the street
While the rain pours to my feet
Drenched and soaked to the bone
But not feeling it at all
Blue lips and numb fingers
The starry night triggers
The memories of all that I have lost
To it
Maliciously and deadly
It had glared while I had watched
In despair
As everything
Fell
At its mercy
Silence, my silence
Is screaming through
The thunderous noise
Of the rain
I’m struggling to be heard
But I’m as a mute
These horrible thoughts
That are frightening me
That I’m trying so desperately
To block
But keep coming back are bringing me
An overwhelming sense
Of guilt and shame
Please someone
Open your eyes
Look at me
Look into my eyes
Please
Before it’s too late
I’ve grown weak
I can’t do it anymore
I can’t
I can’t carry this burden on my own
Look at me
I’m slipping
And there is no one to catch me
I can’t take it anymore
Trapped in my prison of silence
I have condemned myself to death
Please
Hold my hand
Don’t let me do it
Don’t let me kill myself
