So help me

So help me

A Poem by Shannon

So help me love
Oh can you see?
Without him
Who would i be
Would i be born
Anew again
Or would i lie
with just a grin
how can i pace
around this floor
asking myself
why i want more

So help me hate
But can you tell
This ignorant boy
he's put me through hell
What would i do
If i had seen
If you had told me
what was in your dream
If you had said
What had gone on
within your head
AM i just a pawn?
Or needless thread

So help me tears
Flow freely
Drown them in a river
Swept away from me
Turn the river black
So noone will know
What happens when
We have to go
Lay them out
Upon the shore
Tell them if they stay
they'll do no more
No more harm
No more pain
Let it be washed
Away with the rain

And so help me thoughts
I cannot speak
What happens when
My mind begins to leak
And out the secrets
come tumbling
So help myself
what happens then?
