Take Me Away


The tears I cry

Will always dry,

But the pain I bare,

Will always be there.

It's here to stay,

There is no running away.

I cannot continue in this condition,

All I am asking for is a restoration.

Please, someone help me!

If not, then let me be.

I do not know how much longer.

This struggle may only get harder,

And it is killing me in every way.

Do not let me stay another day

Just... Take me away...
