SAVE ME

I do close to nothing most everyday
endless indignation impedes my way
Inescapable depression my Kryptonite
so draining it negates ability to fight

In a paralyzed fetal position I lay crying
attacks of panic from thoughts of dying
Decaying inside whispering walls
frantic for someone to hear my calls

Personal demons often infiltrate my mind
ways to avoid them I am unable to find
Faith is gone but hope shan't reach dead
will to live hangs by the thinnest thread

I've become consumed by sorrow
inducing me to dread tomorrow
Home depicts a lonely prison cell
'Save me' from my personal hell

In this utterly wicked world I don't belong
life the alleged "Gift" turned out horribly wrong

Oh my friend... Your pain is in each word you write, your plea is loud and clear. I know that your Father in Heaven loves you SO much and wants so much for you to feel His love.

You are still a gift... I pray that your will to live becomes much stronger than just a thread...

No matter what you've done in life, or haven't done... you matter... so much.

Hang in there...

Please... your faith will return...

Sincerely always,

Thanks so much to each of you who took the time to read my words, and thanks even more for the heartfelt comments. I don't post this Dark Poetry to get folks to feel sorry for me. I began posting years ago (on Poetry.com), and I mostly do it just to vent. It does help,even if it's in the smallest way. Don't get me wrong,I more than appreciate the comments, those replies give me faith in humanity. It's always good to know there are caring people out there. Thanks again to you who have and to those who may later.

I know what you mean, by 'even in the smallest way'. With what you're experiencing, words alone are not going to fix things... but do hope they continue to help.

And I still pray for you & will continue to do so... I can't change things, but prayer changes things.

Don't forget to pray - even when it's darkest, you are heard... God does care...even when people forget about Him...
