Please Change Me

Please take what's in my hand and change me

Give me a reason to not be identified as a tool

for I know I am much greater than the sum of my parts

And I can show you if only you will

 take what's in my hand and change me

I have done so much to be envied for

and so much to be despised for but I am asking to

be given another chance to put my ego aside and

cultivate something other than a fresh or used piece of flesh

that was thrown at me because of my past and I will cry if you

want me to but I really can't anymore because the tears only come

through this thing that I hold in my hand and I am asking you to take it

And change me

Please Change Me

If falling down on my knees will prove any sincerity then

by all means let me do it now before I cannot bend

Although I stand this way

 it is not enough to say that you could have taught me better

You could have taught me to get out before it got to this point

 and see that working that pole should have been for fun and

letting it load the gun that would force me to now ask you to take what I

 have in my hand and change me

I don't want it anymore but it keeps calling me and I want to go back but I know

 that I will not leave it if I do

So scold me and then hold me or do both at the same time

but please don't watch me lose my mind to what's so sublime

To some as passion was the fashion in all that action that was unguarded

And I won't lie that I let them try to pry what I had to keep sacred

Time is of the essence and it's about time I paid for the lesson

 that I don't want to learn

So as my creator and not one who is a hater

 please shield me from what I've become

All the fame in the game has been great to tame

 and I come to you before it's too late

Please change me

Don't just make me change

I sincerely would like to know what provoked you to write this. So I'll ask, What provoked you to write this T? It's so real yet I'm sceptic to believing so because being slightly familiar with your written works I know enough that they are so broad and vary in almost all human experiences... I like it because it cries out for a hand that may or may not be there yet it's not begging or demanding. Kudos to you for that
