Norey Bailey Poet Free verse

You Saved Me

With one call you saved me
with one laugh I was cured 
cause just one moment before the phone rang
I was at the end of my cord

I didn't know what to do
I wasn't sleeping 
i was falling apart
like someone was playing a game of darts
aimmed at my heart
i couldn't breath and the room was spinnin'

many would ask If i was drunk 
but of the oral poison I didn't indulge
I was overtaken by a mothering nature that had my 
panties in a bunch 
i was hanging by a thread and wanted it to be over so much

then the phone rang
you made me laugh
i wanted to cry
but you made me laugh
you saved me
but i just wanted to die
don't know how to thank you
i'm not suicidal 
just emotional
im not crazy
just hormonal

i was cryin' but I couldnt let you know
i was dyin', dyin' real slow
then you called
and i wasn't dyin' no more
