Am I Here?

Am I here?
Please talk to me.
Teach me how to live.
Teach me how to love.

I'd lay in the grass for hours waiting to die.
To fade away, thinking I was already nothing.
Coming home to an empty house.
Questioning my purpose.

Am I here?
Acknowledge me.
Kiss me, hurt me.
Show me passion.
Show me love.

Don't be like them.
Like everyone else.
Shadows floating by.
They don't see me.

Am I here?
Tell me I'm real.
Lighten my heart.
Lighten my soul.

I feel it slowly take over my mind.
Pulling me away from my body and from you.
I clutch your arm, I grasp your hand.
Trying to feel life beneath the skin.

Am I here?
Because I'm not sure.
Am I just your dream girl?
