I couldn’t look you in the eyes
I wasn't strong enough to see
Wasn't strong enough to feel
It was too painful to bear
I couldn’t share my thoughts,
My feelings
With this tornado mind
They were impossible to grasp
I didn’t understand
I spiraled into darkness
Letting go of your hand
I heard the voices screaming
Telling me to stop
I wasn’t a safe person anymore
I had to leave and set you free
I needed to protect you from myself
