Save Me Before I Drown

I am a broken man

I was sick of the lies.

I couldn’t take it anymore.

I needed to be somewhere alone.

What could I possibly be thinking?

My family and friends love me.

If I abandoned them, I have no soul.

Now I have drifted in the middle of nowhere.

Where am I?

Am I lost?

I see nothing.

I hear nothing.

Everything is pitch dark.

My family and friends are all gone.

Tears are coursing through my veins.

I realize I am no hero.

I am defenseless.

I am vulnerable.

I am powerless.

I am terrified.

I am hungry.

I am scared.

I am drowning.

I am someone else.

I am something else.

If you do not save me, I will drown forever in the depths of the ocean.
