Would You Save Me

If I ran to death With tears in my eyes Cuts on my arms And fell before you Would you lend me your hand And pull me up Into your warm embrace Would you stroke my hair And kiss my cheek Covering my scars With your fingers Would you stay by my side And tell me not to die Would you share your smile So i could see your face Light up beneath the stars And share your warmth That's so contagious Id smile Like I always do When im near you But would you Would you do that for me So I wouldn't leave If I didn't know What else to do Would you?

I bet your magnitude of honesty intimidates many people Jay, even if you don't speak a word; the honesty is probably perceptible in your motions - You use poetry the way it was meant to be crafted, for confrontation, for healing - Yes, I think I would - J.A.B. %

Honestly, It does intimidate many people...My two friends also tend to get cries of help when I steal their phones and message one of their friends. The girls get scared of me...its weird. But, I always try to be honest, I just do more so through poetry. Im glad you recognize that.
