Salvation

SALVATION Salvation is too far away I need it now not some other day My soul needs releasing From a body tired and weary I am already in my own living hell Death will offer no more tragedies Only an unwanted eternity of misery My beliefs My wants My needs Have created the quagmire of despair I am trapped in Pessimism rules the day I need to be set free Life is a meddlesome bore Never ending Tortuously continuing Almost damning A great travesty Is this ungrateful living Who will unlatch me From the roots that stubbornly Keep me rooted here in the present Lingering on? A destructive trend Of self-annihilation has set in Almost It is so controlling This stubborn irresponsible breathing I am entombed in my own hell Not ready to go Not wanting to stay I want And need To be set free
