Leave Me Poem by Tina MacAdam

Please do not leave me here like this
Bound and broken on the florr
Crying and begging for it to stop
Searching frantically for an answer
A reason
Anything

Please do not leave me here like this
Bleeding and bruised on the floor
Pleading for it to stop
Grasping at anything to save me
Something
Nothing

Please do not leave me here like this
Gasping and struggling for breath
Begging for it to end
Giving up and letting go
Accepting
Forgetting

Leave me here like this
As everything grows dark
Everything goes numb
Not fighting or screaming
Fading slowly
It will soon be over
