Broken Tether

my tether has broke the life I had is over everything I held on to is gone the joy I longed for stopped grabbing reaching for my existence swallowed breathing now gasping for it’s over I don’t care anymore my peasant is in the past nothing to hold on to nothing to grasp all I want is peace and another chance I lay face down praying you will save me from this life of sorrow you said you would never leave me nor forsake me as I lay I feel your presents you hold me in your loving arms a breeze flows through me just like the first time I received your gift of life how can this be ? you didn’t forget me I am the child you have always wanted
