Save Me

You got me so down I can’t breathe anymore My breath is drying up in my throat Dying ever so slowly Crying ever so hard I want to give up There’s nothing left here for me anymore No body wants me I am just a waste of space A breathe of lost air A tube without oxygen A person without love… I take it one day at a time Realizing more and more I don’t belong here I belong in the ground With the bugs and the animals to come eat me alive I start writing a note Just one for the ones who care to know Placing it on my bed I go find a razor to slice my pains away The sorrows I have will be soon gone As will I I don’t belong here like everyone else I am who I am But I don’t belong like you or anyone I start sliding it across my skin Blood starts trickling down my wrist Far more then I imagined coming I realize when it’s too late I am human I am me Just different… I begin to cry my eyes out Screaming for my mom She rushes in I made a mistake I want to live I want to get help The ambulance people rush in Rush me to the hospital and saved my life I am ok… I am me… I don’t want to change that for anyone…

Mickala, Welcome to soup..I hope that you will find this a place of refuge to put your feelings out there..I hope that this is just a work about feelings and what negative feelings can do to a person if not handled in a postive way..If it is you, since you went to the hospital I know that you should be getting the help necessary..I enjoyed reading your emotive work..Sara
