Save Me from Myself

By SilentStalker

My worst enemy I've become
The hate in me has grown
My demons are destroying me
And everything I've known

The rage I placed inside of me
Has stole away my hope
I'm breaking slowly everyday
I don't think I can cope

I need you now to show me love
To help me ease this pain
And help me heal my heart before
I drive myself insane

I plead you to be there for me
My pain has grown too strong
Please save me from myself, my love
I may not last for long...

    Wow...did you write this or did I? I felt most of it. But I don't look for love to heal me. It just doesn't work that way. But this was an awesome piece.

    Right now I'm slowly losing my mind and everyday it becomes more and more, insomnia and etc, and its all just become a battle, this eased it just for a little while to read it in someone elses words. ~Mirrored Nymph

    Bleh this made me cry.. Right now more then anything this poem seems like a crutch to me, I can relate to it and I know exactly the feeling,*sigh* I just hope it gets easier to bare, the burdens and insane tendencies of life.

    This is touching. This shows yet again, to those of who, who feel as though they're out there alone .. that there are people who feel just like them .. its strange .. how similiar us mans are. Excellent Write. [D&A] P.S: that was .. unscary.

    ...it gets to the point that I start to believe that someone has to show me how to love again...but maybe I'd stop writing like this, then... Scholar

    Would you believe I was listening to Evanescence when I wrote this...crazy, huh? Scholar

  • Delilah On Sunday, October 26, 2003, Delilah (113)By person wrote:

    No...not crazy at all...a lot of the times I write, I'm listening to some form of music. Music brings certain emotions out of me that no other thing can...~Delilah~

    very nice, its so hard when your worst enemy is yourself,thanks for sharing

  • A former member wrote: Hmm...I relate to this one. After you've been hurt so many times you put up a wall to block the pain. And that wall slowly drives you insane because it also keeps out everything else.

  • A former member wrote: *big hugs*
