Save Me

blah

Save me from myself,
even if you have to place me on a shelf.
I’m going to cause myself pain,
then going to hide in my shame.

Stop me! Save Me!
I can’t do this on my own.
I’m asking and pleading for someone to lend a hand,
help me to my feet, and help me stand.

Save me from what I’m going to do,
though if you ran away I wouldn’t blame you.
I’m going to bring me harm,
but I’m not going to let you sound an alarm.

Stop me! Save Me!
I don’t want to do this.
I want to go in the sunshine and smile,
be able to dance around out of single file.

Save me from hurting my friends who I love,
please give me that extra little shove.
I’m going to hurt them if I’m not heeled,
I need someone to make me yield.

Stop me! Save Me!
This isn’t what I want.
Let me try one more time,
and I’ll try to show how I can shine.

I read this a few times....First of I do like it ,the repetition is very powerful . I would have like to have known more of the hard core issues that writer was dealing with. What does she want us to save her from? I suppose you could have went a different route with this but its perfect the way it is. Overall I think you did a good job.

The repetition so powerfully cries out, moving over your words like dark rain... Vivid and stark, oh your words call for hope in the middle of such suffering. Amazing...
