A Cry For Help
Somebody help me because I have fallen.
I’m so deep and I can’t get out, it’s too steep.
I don’t think I’ll ever be able to leave; it’s becoming harder to breathe.
Screaming but nobody hears.
Crying but nobody sees the tears.
Pulling myself up but getting pulled back down.
Doing nothing but getting swallowed by the ground.
Somebody help me please!
Grasp my hand and don’t release!
I’m being consumed by the darkness.
Clawing cause’ loneliness is calling.
Take me out of this nightmare, nobody is there…
Curled up cold in the corner, life can’t get any shorter.
