Fix Me

by Ash   Aug 30, 2006


Living a life you might regret
Lying to yourself to make it better
Pretending that everything is just fine
When really your world is falling apart

Block these tears from sliding down my face
Stop my heart from falling to the ground
Break the lust that keeps me hostage
Shake the fear that holds me down

Find the missing pieces
and try to sew them back together
Cover all the weaknesses
and make it all better

Hold every empty hole
and fill it brand new
Steal all of the pain
and make it all just go away

Put together these shattered dreams
and have me re-dream them over again
Take all of these hidden lies
and make them disappear in to mid-air

Lift all of these weights off my shoulders
and let me feel like I'm on top of the world
Forget all the guilt I've been hiding away
and have my heart finally be at peace

I'm broken inside and hurting deeply
So please would you fix me
You're my only hope that can save me from myself
So fix me until I'm perfection in your eyes

    "Break the lust that keeps me hostage".

    ^An emotive piece with a unique flow. The use of imagery is effective, as well as the metaphorical language. I think in this line, however:

    "Shake the fear the holds me down" - you should change the second 'the' into 'that'. It doesn't make sense the prior way. But on the whole, a solid piece in it's own way. Well done :).

    I really wish it were possible, for someone to come along and take away all my imperfections. But I guess our imperfections make us into the unique people that we are. I really enjoyed reading this poem, it was definetly an emotive write.

    Take Care.
