Save Me - Tierney Ragsdale

Look me in the eyes

then tell me if you see forever.

Look me in the eyes
then tell me if you see an angel from your dreams.

•••

Save me.
            I’m reaching.
                         I’m needing.


FOR ONCE


Don’t leave me,
             I’ll come undone.

My fists are open,
             take my hand.


BECAUSE I’M FALLING


I’ll beg.
            I’ll plead.
                          Get down on my hands and knees.


Lift me up
             cause I’m falling from the clouds



                         YOU’VE PUT ME IN


Cradle me,
              I crave your lullabys.



ENCASE ME


Keep me warm, locked up inside.
             I can’t live all the way up there.


It was freezing my lungs,
                        closing my arms,
                                     removing my fingers,
                                                  icing over my lips.

            Don’t leave me


                UP THERE



Bring me back down to where you are
Close me back up in your heartbeat.
