How did I get here?
What has begun?
How could this be what I’ve become?
Emotions grab hold,
And rationality fades.
I never thought I’d see this day.
My once strong heart has now been broken.
My every fear has come to be,
And all that’s left is a shell of “me”.
These feelings which pervade my every thought,
Bring me nothing but fear and despair.
How can you love me, when what I love you with is no longer there?
Every stronghold I’ve had has now come crumbling down around me.
I am no longer safe,
And I desperately want to run away.
Away to a place where my dreams can come true,
Away to a place where I can be free,
Away to a place where I can be what I’m meant to be.
The one thing I thought I could trust has been shattered.
My heart is barely beating,
I am barely breathing.
Save me, please.
Prove to me that someone cares,
And prove to me that something’s there.
Perhaps one day, I will no longer feel this burden.
Perhaps one day, my dreams will come true.
Perhaps one day, I’ll be saved by you.
Author notes
Uh..I wrote this when I was in jail today. WBA sucks. I want to leave. They want me to leave. Everything is messed up. Very little is holding me there...
