I Can't Anymore

by Once an Angel   Apr 13, 2015


Please. . .

Take the bottle,
store the pills,
hide the blades.
Keep me safe
from myself.
I don't want to, anymore.

Please. . .

Pour out my liquor,
dole out my meds,
dress my wounds.
Hold me close.
Keep me safe
from myself.
I don't know how to, anymore.

Please. . .

Sober my soul,
prescribe your care,
cover the scars.
Love me.
Hold me close.
Keep me safe
from myself.
I can't do it, anymore.

Please. . .
