The Roller Coaster

I can barely breathe Tears roll down my cheeks Unanswered questions Unmet expectations Dashed hopes All leave me senseless Words you spoke haunt me Save me! The darkness is closing in Save me! The fire is burning Save me! I am drowning Drowning in sorrow My strength is drained My resolve is weak My voice is mute Help me! As I face the giant before me Help me! As I struggle to stand Help me! To know that I am not alone I am not alone I cannot do this on my own A rag doll slumped in the corner Pick me up Hold me tight Protect me in your arms Want me  Fill me with joy Pick me! Out of all the toys in the store Pick me! Breathe life into me! I will dance  I will sing for you Call me by name Make me yours Forever You have bought me with a price I am yours I am yours You have picked me!

Where are you? I can’t seem to see you in my life You who were always by my side now seem to have vanished Where are you? I can’t seem to feel your arms around me I was once so secure and comfortable Now I feel so vulnerable Where are you? The intensity of your voice has diminished I once heard a shout but now I catch a faint whisper Where are you? I am hopeless and confused without you You are my life, my song, the very breath I breathe Can’t you see I’m distraught? Can’t you see I’m hopelessly lost? Can’t you see I’m fighting for air as I sink into the depths of despair? When will you come as a prince on a white steed? When will you extend your hand and save me from the waters that threaten to overcome me? When will you swing your sword and admonish justice on my behalf? Come to my rescue my love! Don’t leave me in the hands of your enemies! Come quickly! Please don’t hide your face from me For you are all I have You are all I’m living...
