I see you

Coming around the corner

You freeze

Staring at me a second to long

My heart starts going

It gets faster

You turn

You head in the opposite direction

You are going as fast as you can

I don't run

I don't move

I don't even breath

You look at me

As if I was a monster

As if I was a ghost

Coming back from the dead

You keep running

I give a silent scream of help

Please just stop leaving me

I need you

You agree we are friends

But you keep running

Please

Stop leaving me

In the darkness

Bring me back to the light

I'm scared

Darkness is everwhere without you

It's getting darker

The farther you run away

I want you to turn arond

Run back

Give me the light again

The darkness is getting thicker

Swallowing me

Drowing me

Sufficating me

It scares me here

Here in the pit of darkness

You are my light

You pull me from the darkness of saddness

You won't save me though

And revive me with happiness

Because you don't run back

And be my light again

You don't turn around

You just run farther away

I fear it is to late

I'm stuck in the darkness

From a place

I can't be freed

Because I have lost my one and only
