Help me, I'm afraid

by Obscure   Jul 27, 2020


Help me I'm afraid
There's a monster in my room
Please just keep me safe
So I don't grow up too soon

Help me I'm afraid
That somehow I'll lose my way
How long will you wait
Before you go away

Help me I'm afraid
That I can't be good enough
Tell me should I stay
Is it better to give up?

Help me I'm afraid
'cause I never wanna die
If I went away
what would happen, would you cry?

Help me I'm afraid
But I don't quite know what of
Will you leave someday
Cause I don't deserve your love

Help me I'm afraid
cause the world seems to have grown
We all say we're okay
When we all feel so alone

Help me I'm afraid
of this voice inside my head
It will not go away
And it claims I should be dead

Help me I'm afraid
I don't wanna stay alive
I've gone so astray
I can't promise I'll be fine

Help me I'm afraid
'cause so many people die
We can't always say
What we want before goodbye

I'm not so afraid
I've got people here to help
I don't have to deal
with my problems by myself

You can feel afraid
But don't let it hold you back
I know the skies seem grey
I'll be here in case you crack

If you feel afraid
There are better years ahead
know that it's okay
And I'll always be your friend

(This is a poem I wrote a while ago. I know it is a bit repetitive (and the punctuation is probably wrong), but I thought I'd share it).
