On My Knees

I reach out to you now
With a pleading look in my eyes
I drop all my pride

There is not a soul
They have all left me
My brother, forgive me

The things I said were harsh
But I was in a horrid state
I was just trying to make sense

Trying to make sense of madness
Trying to reduce the chaos of my life
That chaos is over

Now all I see is dark
I am in an endless abyss
I reach out to you

Take my hand
Pull me up
Lead me out

I need you

I'm on my knees, crying
I'm on my knees, dying
I'm on my knees, pleading

So take me into your arms
Tell me it will me okay
Wipe my tears away for me

I need you

Author notes

I wrote this for my brother. I had written him some ill letters when I found out he had told my love that I had cheated on her, which I hadn't. She had broken up with me, and I had become utterly lost. Then, William, my brother, stopped talking to me, and soon, all my other friends disappeared without a word. So now I come back to William, pleading for him to comfort me.

In a list

Please tell me what you think

    my heart goes out to you and may you get the peace you so deserve and the reconciliation from your brother. May you be blessed to have the guidance and support to give you the strength to accept whatever answers your brother gives. May your friends come back to you for life is too short and lonely without friends to be there for you even as moral support. many blessings and prayers always xxxx

    Nic I can relate to your notes and the poem themselves. My ex, Chelsea, left me because my friend did the same thing to me and now I don't know where Chelsea or her friends live. Depressing yet a sense of hope is ignited in the reader from your words.

    A great write

    I was your brother so this poem lit a fire of regret in my chest and reminds me that actions fucking with love are ones that should be revised. It made me reflect which a good poem should do to the reader

    i don't understand why a brother would do that, but i guess i wouldn being an only child..... even so, i don't get why your friends would leave you.

    I wasn't sure what to think, although at first I had a feeling you might be pleading with a woman.

    I've never had much a connection with my brother. Even so your words were powerful enough to convey the bewilderment and desperation you must have felt.

    Careful where you turn for comfort

    the sadness is overwhelming and I understand the need to find comfort in family and those you trust. But ask yourself if you did not cheat on her as you claimed then why did that person you trusted your brother tell her you did and cause her to leave. and is this really the person to whom you should turn to for comfort.? Find strength in yourself and yes in your family but grow stronger from what you've lost and remember what was gained from the memory of what was had. Keep your chin up and I hope you find the comfort and peace that you need.
