Save Me
I have cut myself
To see how much I would bleed
I have buried myself in shame
A life of a faithless seed
Then I shall grow
To be what I will never become
Resting as I fantasize
As stuck as a spit-out gum
I have lost sight of this world
A place where I once cherished and treasured
Not in time, but in misunderstood words
Those that I have never pleasured
Engulf in darkness
My arms entangle behind my back
Pains reaching my immortal spines
And my heart, a decaying scrap
I cannot taste the freshness of the air
The gentle winds that once soften my face
I cannot embrace to emotions
But the rebirth of all my disgrace
All I can do now is fade
As a memory that is forgotten
With no more meaning in life
No longer in the mind of obsession
The path I’ve taken
Not just a blunder, but a growing faith
So I would live around this helpless emptiness
Just waiting to be save
