Don’t give up

Don’t give up on me

By hoststaceyPublished 5 years ago 1 min read

Help me, I got pulled beneath the undertow

My Lungs feel like they’re full of water

I can’t breathe, I can’t keep swimming anymore

I can’t move, I feel so cold

I’m falling to the bottom

Don’t let me sink into the darkness

Where I’ll be consumed by all my demons

Help me,

my monsters got ahold of me again

My whole life they’re the only ones

Who stayed by my side

Even though they slept for a long time

My emotions and my heart hurt

Awoke them to protect me

It’s the only way I know how

to protect my heart

Of being torn apart again

I’m scared of being alone

I trusted you with my heart

As time goes by

It gets so much harder to mend

My heart full of holes

Will i ever feel whole again?
