Poetry: Save me

by Yolandi Booyens

Created on: July 06, 2009

Why couldn't you just be there

Why couldn't you save me

Why can't you care

If all I want is your comfort

Why do I only get your absence

Why is my world made without you

Why is my heart made with only you

Why is it that all I can see is you

Why is it that all you can see is her

Why does my heart break at your sight

Why does my life shatter at your warmth

Why do I admire you like a God

Why do you look through me like a glass

How can I go one without you knowing me

How can I live without you loving me

Won't you come and save me

Won't you come and run right to me

Won't you stop staring right through me
