Kill me



This worthless soul

Watch him spin his wheels

Like yarn

Into nothing

The mind races

His mind races

Wanders past acres and acres of dry land

He's alone, lonely, dying

He's like an icicle of death falling to the ground

Kicked by a child

Cracked on the pavement

Daddy where are you? Mommy where did you go?

I can't survive this life on my own

I'm going to die, my friends

My family

Please have mercy on me God. Because this is making less and less sense by the minute.

No one is here. No one is coming to my aid. No one cares enough.

God help me please. I'm on my knees at your Cross. Please tell me you're real. Please show me you're alive.
