If I tell myself
It’s fine
It’s okay
I’m alright
If I say it enough times
Will it come true?
Will I believe it?
Will I stop feeling like ****
Someone please come
Save me
Make me feel safe
Because I feel like
I’m drowning
Crashing
Falling
And I have half a mind
To just let my self
Drown
Crash
Fall
Somebody listen
To my call
Because I have half a mind
Which doesn’t want to go
But right now
That half is losing
So here I am
Ever so slowly descending
Into empty space I go
When it’s beside you I’d much rather be
So please won’t you come and listen
To this lilting melody
This playful banter
Between me and my fleeting sanity
Yes
It’s fine
It’s okay
I’m alright
Yes no need to worry
But hurry
Please hurry
Try to make me feel lucid
As you tug me back to reality
Help me back up
Because I did bring rope
But it’s much too short
To scale the sides of this pit
And the ladder
Has fallen over
Along with the chair lying on its side
My head is spinning
And my neck is aching
Won’t you pepper it with kisses
To stop the burning?
But you’re not here
No one is
And maybe later
I won’t be either
