Release

Who will make a stand?
Countless like the seashore sand…
Who shall make a stand?
The end of mankind is at hand

Will someone save me?
Knee deep in regret, I see…
Save me from gravity's hold or I’ll be upset
Nighttime's rainfall shines upon my mindset

Make me feel a little bit more bold
Let my wings of flight slowly unfold
Release is a relief for you and I to behold
Your fire is burning within me, yet I’m so cold

Release me 
Release me
Reflect on me
Radiant rain rinses it all away…
Mirror my pain
Ease my pain
Heal my pain 

I’ve been squandering my time…my time…
Lost my soul in the dust and turned to grime 
Here am I, alone in the shadows of your past
Here I am, trying to catch up to you, but you’re going so fast…

In need of release somehow
In need of true relief right now
I don’t need your vain remedy
All you do is watch me and desert me…

I will change who I am…who I really am
With hopes and chances of release
I shall overflow like water beyond the dam 
I beg you, don’t be an awful tease

Please understand my heart’s need of a mend
My silent plea is for you to simply comprehend
My plea of set me free…
My plea of, also, leave me be…

You saw me all alone,
But not on my own
God has rescued, comforted and conquered me 
With a calm release that has completed an eternity 

(I made this poem shorter for the liking of my fellow readers…thanks for reading!)
