Rescue

by Colleen Barry
Written 01-02-05

Thoughts provoking,

Here I stand choking.

No hand to grab to lead my way,

And what I really mean I cannot say...

Gave all I had and no one cared,

So now what has happened is what I feared:

 

Take a hammer and shatter my walls,

Cut the rope and let me fall.

Give me a helping hand,

Throw me a line and reel me in.

 

Four cycles of CPR

Will bring me back to where you are.

Rescue me,

Hold me close

Feel my heartbeat and watch the clock,

Rescue me, save me from going into helpless shock.
