Help Me
Oh shit
How could I have
Screwed up so bad?
I ended up in Skidside
Lost and broken by life
Looking for an easy out
Now I have no where else
To turn, out of control
High on drugs, craving more
Can’t find my way
Back from the brink
I can’t take no more
The preacher said God was
The way to save my sorry soul
So help me God if you exist
I just want to go home

Your poem ‘Help Me’ speaks strongly of the despair and hopelessness felt by those whose tragic lives are caught and lost and forgotten on the skidside streets…your writing brings back a lot of memories.
