Help Me

Hello......hello.... is there anyone out there? Anyone??? 
Can anybody hear me, really hear me? 
It is so dark in here. 
Sometimes I think I am the only person on the planet. Am I??? 
Sometimes I try very hard to climb out of here, but my arms are tired and my fingers sore. 
I know she loves me. 

I climb a little way but always seem to slide back down. I am so alone. 
My life, yes what of my life? 
It used to be filled with happiness and laughter, now its gone, all gone. 
Why am I being tortured in this way? Feelings in shreds, no hope, nothing but despair. 
I know she loves me. 

Why has it happened to me? What have I done that is so bad that I live in The Hole. 
How I long to be free, feel the sunshine on my body, see the trees, hear the birds singing to lift my soul. 
What could I do, I have no courage left I am weak, I am drained. 
My head is in control, Always. 
Let me go head, give my heart a chance. 
Silence,......... it goes round and round Head does not hear. 
I know she loves me. 

Years of things in my head. They won't go away, keep rearing their ugly heads. Why can't I forget? 
My heart does not stand a chance. 
I long to be free, to live, to be happy, be with my soul mate. Make her happy too. 
Alas, it is not to be, she has been driven away by my head, she has found another. 
I know she loves me. 

The darkness creeps over me in waves. 
Please stop, I am so tired. I want to be happy again. 
It will pass soon, till the next wave, when will it end? 
Is it too much to hope for? Just to be happy? 
One day I will be released from this self made prison. 
One day I will run free, have no cares, no worries, I have that to look forward to haven't I? When I leave this dark plain? 
I know she loves me. 

It is cold and bleak in this hole. 
I know she loves me 
I love her.

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
