Alone... someone help me....

This may be my last poem

but I dont really have the courage

to make that come true

so instead I beg God to take me away

but Im still here waiting everyday

what doesnt kill you makes you stronger

but what doesnt kill you injures your soul

one of these days my wish my be granted

I want to fly away and taste the light

instead of being trapped in the night

Im so sick of trying to be obvious

but even sick of hiding behind a smile

sometimes its real happiness

right now its a lie

you dont know how much I cry

everyday Im alone and bored

no one even cares or tries to help

really all I do is scream for attention

they see and dont think the hurt is real

how should they know how I feel?

when they only get a fishbowl glance

I should take them down inside the murky water

they wouldnt know how to handle it then

but that would only push them more away

all I want is to feel inside the light of day

I dont want to be alone anymore

watching the most important people disappear

is it me thats letting them go?

I want them to come back to me...

I dont want to react selfishly

I just want one person to be there

just one person to talk to

I need someone to hold me

God either answer my death plea

or send someone here to help me
