Tell me it’s Okay

(*You called for help...)

Please,

take me in your arms

and tell me everything’s

going to be okay.

Please tell me

the storm will die down

and there will be clear skies again.

Please don’t leave me

to deal with my inner demons

and break myself.

Please, I need you...

.

.

.

The pain numbs

Tears cascade down

This isn’t what I need right now.

I may seem strong

But my insides

are a mess.

I could crumble

at the slightest touch.

I just need someone

to hold onto,

to be there for me

at my darkest hour.

Someone I can trust

and care about deeply.

Someone to comfort me,

and make me laugh

the pain away.

I just want reassurance

That things will get better.

That whatever happens,

we will stay strong together.

But you go on with life,

Leaving me behind,

forgotten together with the

burned a

s

h

e

s

of our past.

(*...but nobody came)
