Help

zhangyuyouyu

Calling for help on the telephone

But you’re on the other line

You finally picked up

And I said I’m fine

 

Head banging against the walls

Fists punching against the walls

Slapping across the face

Scissors slashing across the wrists

Screaming into the pillows

For help

 

When no one seems to care

Or bother about the signs and the signals

When no one seems to notice

Or reach out

 

When I am in the shallows

Heading straight for the gallows

    Wow, what a desperate piece. This encompassed what it means to be hopeless so well. Good job! 👍
