I Need Help

Please, help me

It's dark

I feel like I'm sinking away,

Sinking deeper and deeper

Sinking down to the dark, lonely sea floor

I need help

Please, help me

I need my family, the family that truly loves me

I never even met her, my real mother that is.

I need help

I need the people close to me

But that's just it,

I don't have anyone.

They took me from my home, from my family, the ones I loved the most

They have no idea how much that hurts,

getting your family taken from you

Let me tell you it sucks

I need help

Sometimes I wonder what it would be like,

to have my mother around

and have her tuck me in at night

It may seem like I'm complaining about little stuff,

But really you don't know what you have till it's gone

And all these things that are little and mean nothing to you

all those things mean a great deal to me

and I would give anything to have them back

without my family I have nothing

and I have to love myself because no one else will

I NEED HELP

PLEASE, HELP ME.
