Fetch Me
I would like God to come fetch me
Cos if I take my own life
Too many people will feel regret, sorrow and an unanswered or indescribable pain constantly popping up whenever my name, face or a memory appears.
I just want God to come fetch me
I'm too tired to be empty all the time
Yet too full of thoughts running around in my mind.
I feel battered and brushed
I'm starting to make people unhappy
With my depression
My emotions
My yearning for comfort
But it seems as if I am just being selfish
Why does everything need to revolve around my hurt, pain and unhealed trauma
"Just let go of your past", people say
But it's not a rope that I need to unclench my fist around
I'm tired of these anxiety and panic attacks
I cannot unsee the things I see when I'm going through those traumatic experiences
It's flashbacks that haunt me
I want God to come fetch me
Cos When I want to rest
I still see it
I can never fully live
I'm too messed up, and it's only getting worse
I might be 1 in a million
That dies where people think
I'm not supposed to die
Or "she still had her life to live"
It feels as if I have lived multiple lives
Hench the constant déjà vu moments
What can I say
I messed up
And if I need to die to fix it
Then...
I would like God to come fetch me
