Give me back my life,
breathe back my air.
I love you,
I'm just so scared.

I don't rely on people
yet somehow I let you become my heart beat.
You're my blood,
through every inch of my being.
Keeping me alive.

Flowing,
rushing,
you seep into every part of me.
I want to bleed you out,
But that would mean I'm dead.

Why must I need you so badly?
I'm too scared to love,
and I'm too scared to stop.
I know I'm being selfish
but the thought of two dependent people,
two "I need you" people,
terrifies me.

Please never leave,
I need you...
