It just starts with another painful cough And then my head really begins to spin. It reminded me of how much I'm closed off And how I keep my feelings bottled in. It seems as if I push people away Like they are forbidden fruit from the tree. But really, I want them to stay. I want them to stand side by side with me. I want to be independent and brave. I can't. I just need someone else to blame. Yet, it is still your comfort that I crave Although, you do not even know my name. Always being alone is what makes me scared. Day after day, I wished that you cared
