Dear god


Dear God, I plead for salvation from this consuming abyss the raw, ceaseless tide of anger, pain and sorrow is a slow venom dissolving my very core the venom is making my sanity slowly cease as if it was never there at all I fear i'm drowning and the world is holding me down I might not be able to continue if this keeps going on i'm extremely tired and have people to take care of but I can't even get out of bed we've had tough times you and i But I swear I have more than meets the eye i'm chained to the bottom of the sea and I'm the monster begging to be set free i'm a dear drowning in quicksand trying to make a quick stand for myself and all I believe for my time here will eventually end please I beg for the little girl inside of me to finally be set free
