Let me breathe!

Let me live!

Why cant anyone here my screams of help?

No one can see my signs.

I cannot escape the shadow.

I just want to be right.

To be loved.

To have people I can trust.

I want to let people in but I cant.

Every time I do, I get hurt.

People get mad at me because I make mistakes.

They get mad at me because I’m not perfect.

I try! I really do…

But no one realizes.

I know how every one looks at me.

It’s just how society is.

Every one judges us automatically.

That’s why I am shy.

I don’t want to walk away,

And be someone’s conversation.

I don’t want to be constantly followed by the shadow of someone.

The shadow of someone who wants to hurt me.

He is slowly getting closer, and closer to my life.

I can feel my life escaping from me.

It’s slipping from my grip,

And I cannot seem to get it back.

It doesn’t seem like I can fix what I’ve done.

I can’t erase time.

I can’t run away from it.

I’ve tried.

I got so far, only to be brought back to misery.

Now everyone expects me to let it out.

Act as if nothing is wrong.

These strangers don’t care about me,

They do not even know me.

They say they can get it away from me.

But that will only last for so long.

Then I will be in danger again.

Someone tell me the answers.

Tell me what it is I should do.

Tell me how to fix it.

Listen to my screams.

Help me!

Don’t let my life slip away to hell.
