To be hidden inside
Once heartbroken
Lost trust in the eyes of the people
The heart like a custard donut but only filled with pain
Afraid
Learned an extent of how players play
A guidebook to an unforeseen hurt
Remedies thought to be euphoric
To have it all escape in the hands of time
Afraid
A dark room to find a soul balled under the linen sheets
Used tissues lay on the bedside
Tissues containing tears of the lost
The lost and the loss now being chosen
Afraid
Memories clouding the air
Suffocating and so so so compelling
Compelling to remember the chapter
A chapter written long ago
Until the time arrives for the page to turn
Afraid
No need to be
Don't be afraid
Let me in
For I'll be forever
A shoulder to lean on
Afraid
Afraid is simply what we will make it
Together
