I Want Help

About to self-destruct

By savage writerPublished 5 years ago 2 min read

dying slowly, but surely

withering with each day that passes by

watch my state of mind wilt like classroom plants

dying slowly, but surely

i want help, please help me

i don’t feel that well anymore

i want help, please help me

dying slowly, but surely

my mental well-being has been assimilated,

i mean assassinated

i want help, please help me

dead on the inside, alive on the outside

it’s only a matter of time before it becomes the other way around

find me face down in the bathroom

gone off the pills

lyin’ in a pool of vomit

i got too many thoughts of corruption lingering around in my subconscious

thinking about doing this, doing that

getting put in jail or on someone’s t-shirt

feeling like a failure

i couldn’t even get my high school crush

that’s how you know i suck at communication

a damn failure i am

can’t even get any from hoes in my messenger

terrible at making connections

yet can write like nobody’s damn business

i want help, please help me

why do i feel like i’m being watched and hunted

the artist is in his natural habitat, why not destroy it

i want help, please help me

i been going to counseling

it ain’t enough

you can argue that i’m taking those first steps

shit means nothing if i’m not getting any better

i’m gone off the Seroquel, writing these verses like they’re the last

hell, they could be if i ain’t careful enough

i want help, please help me

do i gotta write it in the sky

or put it on a flyer

i write my poems from the heart

i’m giving it all i got

is my finest really my finest

i’ll leave that up 2 you to decide

decipher the stuff i serve you

unlike a diner, i don’t take any orders

i want help, please help me

i want help, please help me

i want help, please help me

dead as hell dead as hell

dead as hell dead as hell

dead as hell please help me
