Save Me

Alone I stand
Within my world
Nowhere to go
I stay still
Not going forward
Only looking back
To the past
Of which I can’t let go
To all the lies
That begin to show
Who I am
Under this smile
That hides me from you
This mask that covers the pain
That cuts like a blade
Digging deeper into my tortured heart
So broken it hurts
I wait to be put together
Only to be torn apart again
By the hate that’s inside me
No one has found me
Is it because no one cares?
That I am drowning
In these invisible tears
Of which I only cry out to you
Through the words I speak
Through all the things I do
But you never look closely
Maybe if you did, you might see
That the only thing I truly need
Is for you to save me
