Savior, I Am Not

Savior, I Am Not

A Poem by Alicia Hirshey

Fighting like crazy

Buying this time

Wanting to save you

Never caring about mine

Giving up

It’s easy to say

But who will be there

When my past comes out to play

 

Twenty three

Little cuts

My stomach now bares

Easily done

It was her who took me there

Little droplets

Of my blood washed away

Like everything else

Down the drain

 

Savior

This word you held true

I’m no savior

I’ve given up on you

Everything is falling

Fading to grey

I gave up so easy

I’m to blame

 

Running the razor

Shredded my skin like a knife

In the end

My pain made it alright

Giving up

On everything I held dear

Never once realizing

Who drove me here

 

Savior

This word you held true

I am no savior

I’ve given up on you

Everything is falling

Fading to grey

I gave up so easy

Am I to blame

 

Standing in silence

Staring him in the face

Watching him watch

As my blood rushed down the drain

What have you done

You saved me from here

Please don’t leave

It’s you I hold dear

 

Fighting like crazy

Buying this time

Wanting to save you

Never caring about mine

Giving up

It’s easy to say

But who will be there

When my past comes out to play

 

Twenty three

Little cuts

My stomach now bares

Easily done

It was her who took me there

Little droplets

Of my blood washed away

Like everything else

Down the drain

Savior or Saviour refers to a person who helps people achieve Salvation, or saves them from something.

But how can I be a savior, When my emotions made me break.

We all break and in healing find ourselves stronger then before.. We have our own internal super glue..x

Frightening and alarming visuals.. The blood down the drain stains indelible conceits in my mind. Not based off truth is it?
