I’m lost! Help me! I sob. I’m drowning in, from everything- Tears of sorrow Salty as they drip into my mouth Scarlet red blood I try to wipe it, But it’s hopeless It gushes out like a riptide, Leaving a mess Too abundant to dissipate There’s not a sufficient amount of rain From the good old days That could wash away my pain. All that is left in the aftermath Is my ragdoll body in need of support Someone to lean on, Or perhaps a friend To confide in. And maybe something intangible too, Something that only a sprinkling Of propitious people in the world can truly experience- Love. Drip, drip, drip, Where are you?
