So in depth, with every step
A breath caught in mid-sentence
I feel it linger
I know it is there
But what happens, if I grow scared?
I don't want to anger you.
What if my mind flips upside down?
I don't want to fail you.
What if my heart grows to panic?
I don't want to disappoint you.
If I fall into the depths of darkness
That sometimes eat me alive
I'll fall off the cloud
Into the charcoal tears
And drown.
I'm scared of this amazing thing
That can happen so soon
And be delayed for too long.
I hope you'll truly keep hold of my hand.
Don't let this tear me up if the razor blades start to fall.
Don't be the one to throw them at me.
I'm going to try to be strong.
For us.
For the things we work towards.
For trust.
For love.
