A Call For Help Poem by Andrei Iancu

A Call For Help

Rating: 5.0


Oh, garden of hope, garden of light
Send me a sign to free my dark mind!
The dead are climbing up on their tombs
Falling again, crying, stuck in the ooze.

Oh, elderly oak, tree of my soul
Why was I breaking the rule?
From deep puddles filled with black mud
I've wanted to drink only one cup.

Oh, now, why do I want to be saved?
With my life, what was supposed to be meant?
Staring in terror, seeing it pass
Wires keep dragging my face through the mass.

Oh, my body that tried to survive
Bring the dreams back inside my mind!
Burning in boilers, placed in a line,
One hour of torment, hanged by a vine.

POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
The theme of it it's the sadness that occurs once realising the life has passed. One of the messages is the exteriour call for help that keeps losing its patience at the end. The other one it's the mistake that has been realised too late and the cost that the person had to pay.
