A Scream That No One Hears

By KissTheSkyPH

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

I’ve lost my buoyancy. I’m not sure I can recover from this fall. Give me some air. Give me a break. Give me a moment To look into your eyes And find something more there Than absence of the spirit. I can’t pull myself from the bottom of this well. It’s walls are too familiar. They cry the juice of my philosophy And bar my fingers from Groping their desperate way. Toss me a line. Toss me a promise. Toss me a crumb of your compassion. Think of it as your annual Act of charity. Dance around your motives and incentives, But please, Before it’s too late Save me from Drowning in myself.Help me help me help me. I don't know what to do. I don't want to bleed another night away... Written November 14th, 2001 © on Nov 14 2001 09:45 AM PST   18 • 0 • 10
