Slipping Away Again Poem by Bekah Tav.

Kill me,
Kill me slowly.
Save me,
Save me quick.
Whisper to me I’m alright,
Scream into my face tonight.
Make me hear you,
Make me see,
Make me understand
Something.
I’m dying.
Inside there is nothing left,
On the outside too.
All these scars that you see,
Are because of everything.
They’re the solution to my problems,
The answer to my fears.
The feeling that I
Have been getting,
For now more than two years.
I’m addicted.
I’m trapped in a small room,
Where there is only pain.
I’m stuck in this nightmare,
Waking up,
I still feel the same.
All this darkness surrounds me,
That no one understands.
I try to reach out,
Try to get a hand.
But all the grips I’ve lost,
All the tears I’ve cried.
All the fears that I’ve
Swallowed down,
Are filling me tonight.
I need hope for tomorrow,
Laughter throughout the day.
Someone to come and hold me,
Cause I’m slipping away again.
