took a phone call today please come and talk to me got in the car, drove to you and you said to me *I'm not right, I feel it in my head I've got no one else, I've got no friends I can't talk to you, I don't know where to begin please, just talk to me* I talk about nothing as I watch your tears I speak about idiocies and unrelenting fears I whispers entreaties that drive me insane I sit and silently know... I'm to blame each revelation, besides the last leaves me gasping, struggling to breathe each time you say I can't talk about it gives me another reason to believe It's my fault this is my shame my horror is I walked away knowing you were on your own you sent me away like a dog with a bone with no meat on it I don't have a clue whats really eating you except I could only say *whatever you are thinking Suicide is NOT the way*

I Failed You (and I'm scared I'll bury you)
