a beautiful soul
carved out of pain
afraid of burdening
others with your darkness
terrified that speaking
is only attention seeking
darling, I see you
and I'm sorry I'm not there
don't peel back your skin
don't let your beauty
be rotted by sin
take that knife and toss it away
don't let the cold metal
pierce through your heart
always the therapist
the one who checks in
but darling we have failed you
who checks in on you?
pick me pick me
could never be you
but I pick you,
I do.
you have always been there
through the dark and the light
and finally I see you
I see you shining bright
you hate that it hurts
and honey I know
I wish I would have known
let us be close
let me help heal your scars
I know I've been gone
mentally at least
but honey I'm here now
talk to me please
never shut down
keep on pushing
because you have a soul
untouched by hate
you are pure
amazing
darling, its true
you are always there for others
but who is here for you?
I'm so sorry I've let you down
I'm sorry I've let you drown
don't worry about ruining anything
post everything here
you aren't a burden
we love you I swear
you are loved
and if I could hold you tight I would
One day I will
attention is divided
and its hard I know
but let me take a minute
and focus on you
you deserve it love
truly, you do
you cannot lose me
I'm here now
let yourself be loved
and please keep ranting
I won't look again
(I lied)
I love you.
