I Need You

Why do I feel like this
What causes this
This sadness
This pain

I have such a good life
Yet I still am broken
I need someone to fix me
To help me swim
Because I'm not sure if I can keep going on my own

I need someone to guide me through
This neverending ocean
I need someone to be my savior

I need someone to comfort me
To be there when I'm upset
To be my safe haven

I need someone to help me stay
Above the surface
So I don't drown

I don't wanna drown

Please help me swim
Show me how
Teach me to stay above
The terrifying depths
Of this neverending ocean

I wish I had someone
In real life
To help me through
All of the crap
Life has for me

I have someone to talk to
Her name is Angel
But she lives
So very far away

I can't see her in real life
I don't know if I'll ever be able to
I hope so

I need to see her
I need her to hug me
I need her to tell me it'll be okay
I need her to help me swim

I need you, Angel
Don't let me drown
I don't wanna drown
But I can't swim on my own
Please

I never expected it to be this hard
Life
I always thought it'd come easily to me
Like it used to

Now everything is against me
School
Friends
Even family sometimes

I don't know how to deal with it
I have no one
To tell me it'll be okay
No one but Angel

She is my Guardian Angel

She is my guiding light

She is my lifeboat
In this neverending ocean

She is my friend

She's there for me

I need her

Angel, please

Never leave me

I won't be able to handle it

The emptiness I feel

It'll overtake me

I'll drown in my own sorrows

My demons will pull me under

Don't leave me

Don't let me drown

Please

You suppress the sadness
The emptiness and hopelessness I feel

You make it go away

You shut up the voices in my head
Putting me down

You make everything go away

You make me happy

You make me laugh

Don't stop

Making me smile

Don't stop

Being there for me

I need you

Please don't leave

I need you

Hey guys. I know this is an extra poem thing today, but I just wrote this cause I'm feeling kinda sad. And as you can see, I wrote it about my best friend. She lives in a different state, but is not too far away. And my mom won't let me go meet her. Which makes me so sad, but there's not really anything I can do about it. I'm only 11, so I still am under my parents rule. But I really, really hope to meet her someday because she means everything to me. I don't know what I'd do without her. She's helped me so, so much, and I don't know where did be or what I'd be doing right now if I hadn't met her on Instagram. Angel, if you see this, know that you mean everything to me and I'm so grateful that I have you to turn to. I have no one else, and without you, life would be so much harder. Thank you for being there for me and listening to all my crap. I love you so much.💖

Stay strong, be you, and love yourself.💫
