Save Me

A simple request.

Please, please hear my voice

Please hear my call

Please tell me you will say

I’m not mute after all

Please, please gaze into me

Please open my eyes

Please look at me and think

I’m not completely blind

Please, please wake me up

Please take hold of me

Please shake me violently

And wake me from this dream

Please, please strike my face

Please make me arise

Please, do anything you must

Just please say I’m alive

Please, please forgive my plea

Please do not forget

Please do not think it’s something

That you must regret

Please, please bring me to life

Please make my blood run

Please calm my rampant mind

Before more damage is done

Please, please save my life

Please fill the hole

Please don’t let me die here

Please, just save my soul

I love the increasing desperation in this. It showcases a sense of vulnerability almost to the point of self-degradation. How much must you fear death (or perhaps what lies beyond) to desire such desperate measures of help.

[Ethale Captor]

Thank you. And yes, the desperation of beyond limitation was my ultimate goal.

I love the rhyme scheme and the.... imagery (I think that's the word I'm looking for)
