Save Me
You got me so down
I can’t breathe anymore
My breath is drying up in my throat
Dying ever so slowly
Crying ever so hard
I want to give up
There’s nothing left here for me anymore
No body wants me
I am just a waste of space
A breathe of lost air
A tube without oxygen
A person without love…
I take it one day at a time
Realizing more and more
I don’t belong here
I belong in the ground
With the bugs and the animals to come eat me alive
I start writing a note
Just one for the ones who care to know
Placing it on my bed
I go find a razor to slice my pains away
The sorrows I have will be soon gone
As will I
I don’t belong here like everyone else
I am who I am
But I don’t belong like you or anyone
I start sliding it across my skin
Blood starts trickling down my wrist
Far more then I imagined coming
I realize when it’s too late
I am human
I am me
Just different…
I begin to cry my eyes out
Screaming for my mom
She rushes in
I made a mistake
I want to live
I want to get help
The ambulance people rush in
Rush me to the hospital and saved my life
I am ok…
I am me…
I don’t want to change that for anyone…
