Save Me Poem by Sarabjot Arora

Save Me



Eyes shut.
Clenched fists.
Lava, swims out of my eyes
Long fingernails dig deep in skin
Quivering lips
Smile, a
Broken glass



Tied down
Leather belts
Scars, from the pain I’ve felt
What did I do pa, to
Deserve this
Door locks
You’re gone



Empty air
Left alone
Darkness stares me in the eyes
Numbness strangles my delicate soul
Deceptive heartbeat
Quiet screams
Save me.

POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
I reflected on the past 30 days of my life and realized that there is someone I could write about. I do not personally know her, as she is my sister’s friend in another city but her experience was powerful enough to write about. She was being abused by her own parents. I found that this perfectly relates to the emotions I wanted to address in my poem. It is also something that I feel strongly about.

The poem is written in the style of Trinet(stanza consists of: 2 words,2 words,6 words,6 words,2 words,2 words and 2 words) x3
