Take Me Away

Falling faster than a pencil dropping from one hand. 
Needless to say I feel so sad. 
I need you to take me away.

Come on you calm my senses. 
Even when I am so tense. 
I need you to take me away. 

Come now you know how. 
Pour me down another one now. 
I need you to take me away. 

The coldness feels soothing. 
Nothing is going to stop me from quitting. 
I need you to take me away. 

Come on you old fool 
Its my everything, and my tool. 
Can you take me away?

This is nice Adrienne...I used to look to the bottle to wash away the pain. Now I get it all out in my poetry....Hugs Tim
