I can't do this on my own
I need someone's hand to hold
Just to know I'm not alone
And to know that someone knows
That I'm trying and I'm struggling
And I'm doing what I can,
What’s your worst nightmare?
Is it
The way water
Engulfs you,
Imprisons you,
And slowly steals your breath?
Or,
What is pain?
What are tears?
When you have a million questions with no fears.
Born to this world
Without a trace.
Left in the dark, left to defend.
And, you start so low.
But, come up so high.
