Chapter 5 - Would you..?

And as I sit here in the dark of my room I realize,

No one is there to come to my house in the middle of the night to keep me from taking those pills.

No one is there to take the blade as I put it to my wrist.

No one is there for me to call in the middle of the night.

No one is there for to hug me after I wake up crying again.

Why can't I be strong enough to say I'm not okay?

Why can't they just say I know your not fine, even when I say I am?

Why can't they just hug me when my tears come falling like a river?

Why can't they sit with me in a corner holding me as I shake from anxiety?

Will you stay with me?

No matter how sad I am?

No matter what time it is I call or text will you answer?

If I said I wanted to die would you let me cry by your side?

Or would you leave me?

Say I'm just looking for attention?

Say I'm not good enough?

That I need to stop?

Would you leave me alone in the dark as I cry my heart out?
