I Need An Angel

I need help to survive this final year
To be guided along the path of joy
I need an angel to help me through
To hold me in it’s wings
To whisper in my ear
(That everything will be all right)
To keep me safe through times of strife
To wipe away the tears I shed

Im so sick of this life
I hate being alive to just be controlled
[It’s unfair]
Why can’t I just live my own life?
Why do I have to be pressured into everything?
Why do you say I’m going to lose everyone I know?
When its time to go

It’s comforting to know
That I can end it all and take my life
But I don’t know why I can’t do it
I can’t end it tonight or tomorrow
But every night I pray
To slip away
To die
To never see another day
But it never happens
I guess you have a plan for me yet
But please let it be better than this

Please help me

I need help to survive this final year
Upon which I will make a decision
Fight to live
Or surrender to die
I live in a life so controlled
Decisions are made for me, not by me
It feels like I’m living someone else’s life
I feel trapped and alone
Without a guide to help me through
Please I need help
I need an angel to comfort me
To hold me in it’s wings
To whisper in my ear
(That everything will be all right)

To keep me safe through times of strife
To wipe away the tears I shed

Is it wrong to wish for a different life?
Is it wrong to wish for something better?
I know I shouldn’t
I should try to be thankful for what I have
But I can’t find anything
Except those that say they care for me
And maybe that’s the reason why
I can’t die
I cry in shame at what I think
The thoughts of freedom
When I know I have people that care for me

Please, please help me

I need help to survive this final year
To be guided along the path of joy
I need an angel to help me through
To hold me in it’s wings
To whisper in my ear
(That everything will be all right)
To keep me safe through times of strife
To wipe away the tears I shed

Please, I need an angel to help me survive

    Desperate plea

    Such a deep heartfelt write! Very beautiful lyrical form. I could almost hear this set to music. It had a very nice flow and rhythm. Very sad and emotional.
    I could feel the desperation of wanting freedom.
    I liked it very much.

    man i really like this, i dont even know really what to say, dont take that in a bad way, its just that good. i so know how you feel, man i wanted to go to,but i had too many people that loved me and needed me and i felt it selfish to take my own life. the whole being pressured thing and being controlled and wanting to die because of it, i think that doing that only proves their control, you gave into the pressure. dont let them win, and your angel will come to save you, no doubt about that, in any form too. but neways, this is great yet again! i loved that it was in lyrical form too, thats perfect for this type of poem i think. so yah! awesome job!!!

    this is a very incredible piece. the emotion is practically leaping from my screen and i love it for that. dont give up though...that angel that you're waiting on, they never show up until they're needed and when you truly need it, it will be there.whether its a friend to hold you or a kitten to crawl into your lap, you'll find comfort somehow.

    good luck.

    awww this poem made me cry. or lyrics, honerstly they read a slyrics to me, either way they were honest and beautiful and I am simply amazed by this, I am seriously on the verge of tears flooding my eyes and I usually don't cry. I really hope that you find all that you are looking for and that God blesses you. I am always here if you need a friend, I love new friends I pray for you and I will certainly be reading more form you.
