Down Where I Belong

Help me.
Please...
Help me.
My insides burn
from a forgotten flame
and with every breath
it only grows
and consumes me.
My bed has become my grave
I sink into the matress of
sweat stains from forgotten lovers.
I sink quicker into my own demise...
Help me.

New wounds line once healed flesh.
What happened to being ok?
What happened to my face in the mirror?
What happened to that smile?
Up so high then crushed back down
to the lowest of lows...
the lowest of lows...
Everything I touch splinters,
and each splinter works it's way into my heart
and it burns
and it hurts
and this pain is unbearable.
Help me.
Please...

Who do I cry out to now?
Years of searching for a savior
only to realize I can't be saved.
All I want
is for it all to go away...
I just want it all to go away...
