“Please don’t count me as selfish when I say I’m fine,
Or I’m indifferent all day.
Please don’t get angry with me,
When I say “I’m ok” or “I’m just sad”
Please don’t tell me that I don’t love you,
When nightly I cry in my bedroom
Out of shame
Because I’ve been mad all day and I’m craving for love,
But God forbid I am fine in your presence,
Because I’m deathly afraid of it.
Please-
Don’t leave me because I am sick.
You wouldn’t leave if I had cancer,
Or had a broken leg..
So what’s any different with my mind?
I’m just as sick.
Just as scared.
And in the same amount of pain,
If not more.
So please:
Don’t leave me.
I need you,
I love you.”
