I know that my happiness
shouldn't rely on other people

But I still put my whole life
to the palm of your hand

Everything is spiraling out of control
I wish I was with them
I keep worrying
I'm so tired
I can't breathe
My heart's racing


But I'm just fine.

There are
things I
have suffered
through
that
will never
be a story
from my lips,
nor will
ever be
words to a paper.

Please don't take another
Bite of my tortured soul
I don't think I can take
Another second more

Please don't look through me
When I'm right here
I know I'm not much to you
But I don't want to disappear

Please don't leave me withered
And out here alone to die
I've had enough of love
So just hold my hand one last time
