Somebody

This whole life is an hallucination
a product of this 'hallowed' nation
and we're all living it...

Somebody hold me
Don't turn the lights out
I've got nowhere to go but further down

Pressure building up inside - me
shiv.er.ing.
though its hot as hades
outside

Somebody hold me
Don't turn the lights out
I've got nowhere to go but further down

Somebody hold me
It's getting cold now
Dunno whats happening

Its so addicting
running its claws up and down me
I can't defeat it
I can resist
I just keep injecting it

O' this lust for feeling good
My God I'm aching
But somethings wrong
Something is not right
I think I'm losing my mind

Somebody hold me
Don't turn the lights out
I've got nowhere to go but further down


O' this lust for feeling good
My God I'm shaking
I'm cold to the bone
I'm losing control
I think I need to get some help

Somebody hold me
O God wont you hold me
Don't you dare leave me here
God I'm so frightened
I don't know whats happened
Someone get me out of here

Somebody hold me
Don't turn the lights out
I've got nowhere to go but further down

Somebody hold me
Don't turn the lights out
I've got nowhere to go but further down

Somebody....

    How lonely

    Your poem was great. It reminds me of myself. I guess you really can find apart of yourself in someone's mind.

    Thorough Glass Darkly, Fill a KKD.

    Trying out the short line lately,sometimes, I have been [I read Ai lately, an American poet; her scene was short lines, sharp images, sort of like her ship had come in to bay...onet!!...anyway...] it had me think howmuch punch a little short line might add to this here thang...

    This whole life is
    Hallucinated
    Product of this
    Hallowed nation
    And we are
    All living it.
    **************
    Sounds like heroin addiction, but not really (speaking from experience). Nonetheless, it is evocative of more than that, ellipses and all.

    I thought the last line might be better phrased:

    Some body.

    as if in exclamation of revelation, dully.
    ******************************************
    For the relentless nature communicated by the repetition, I applaud, as much as for the evident emotion underlying.

    I like it very much. Especially the first few lines.

    I love this repetetive motion I feel when I read the Chorus. I swear , it feels like a song. It feels good. But sad -so sad.

    Wow so deep

    And yet is a bit scary and sad. Addiction is so sad but there is help for those that want it.
    These lines really got to me;
    "Its so addicting
    running its claws up and down me
    I can't defeat it
    I can resist
    I just keep injecting it

    O' this lust for feeling good
    My God I'm aching
    But somethings wrong
    Something is not right
    I think I'm losing my mind"
