I never thought it'd be me

The one who would crack first

question is now

When will i break?

How long will i last like this

broken and bleeding

but still pretending to function.

will anyone notice,

before its too late?

Can anyone help me

save me from everything

the nightmares that plague me,

the fears that torment me?

What is it like to break

will it hurt,

because i cant take much more.

Will anyone stand beside me

help me when i trip

hold me when i fall

tell me that eventually

it will all be okay

this is not a call for death

but a plea for help

i write this for

what little sanity i keep

hope is a small knife

that can cut wounds so deep
