Help me now or for nevermore

This is a cry for help.

my sadness,

my addiction,

my worst nightmare that I have dawned upon myself.


Help me find the way out,

from this dark pit I have laid myself in.


A cry for a hand,

your hand to reach out.


Providing love,

guiding me to the light at the end of the tunnel.


Because I fear if not,

I may be nevermore.


A purple shadow,

brushes over coined eyes.


I can’t love myself anymore,

not if you are not with me anymore.


There’s no getting back,

when I treat you so unkindly.


Digging myself into addiction,

into self-destruction.


White lines skimming my face,

I find myself in desperation’s place.


Placing you into a fragile house of glass,

not knowing where the next stone may fall.


Drifting away from the one thing I love,

consumed by this self-pitying loathe.


Demised by emotional suppression,

I told the lie that desolation was my path.


Here the script lies,

over the door of hell,

writ small.


I cry for help,

pull me away from these dark currents,

help me find the light at the surface.


For evermore,

we can be more.
