Set Free So I Can Finally Just Be Me



Is there anyone out there
I have been calling for someone real
There are these sensations if there was
Plus the voices and noises in my head

If  there is anyone out there
Please I am begging you I need help
Ie been waiting to be set free
So I can I can finally just be me

It feels like I am in a nightmare
I don´t know what is real anymore
But it feels like I can wake from this one
I keep on having so many thought
that makes me feel like I am all alone

I call for help but there is no answer I Keep hitting the gates the gates of freedom  but they won´t break
Constantly begging and begging for a rescuer
But life won´t send one as if I don´t deserve it
Everything in my eyes now seems so fake

Just keep getting stabbed in the back over and over
Setting and burning me into a thousand flames
Is this a sign that I do not deserve to have this life
Or is this a sign that I am the big issue

How come all of this keeps happening
Why oh why is there no one coming to rescue
All I am asking and begging for is to be set free
That way I can finally at last be

    Wow, your poem "Set Free So I Can Finally Just Be Me" really captures the emotions and struggles of feeling trapped and longing for freedom. The sense of desperation and loneliness comes through strongly in your words.

    One improvement suggestion I have is to consider adding more specific details or imagery to help the reader vividly imagine your experiences. This will create a deeper connection and make your message even more powerful. Additionally, playing with the rhythm and flow of your poem could enhance its impact and make it more engaging to read.

    Overall, your poem effectively conveys a sense of yearning for release and the desire to be true to oneself. Keep exploring your emotions and continue to craft your unique voice through your writing. Great job!
