Just walk with me
Let me look over and see
That you’re still at my side
I don’t need you to fix this
And I definitely don’t want to see
The level of overwhelm in your eyes
When you realize
You’re not strong enough
To carry me on your back
I am not asking you to do that
I just need support
I don’t need you to be the first responder
To all of my disasters
Just hold my hand
As they sew in the stitches
Don’t avoid me because I have a problem
Too big to fix
And you can’t wrap your mind around it
Jump into the pit with me
Not to help
But to show me I’m not alone
On my journey to the surface
Show me I’m worth it
