Hold me, embrace me,
hug me tight.
I’m so alone
within my mind.
Let me know that you’re still here.
Hold me close and calm my fears.

Paranoia, depression, angst.
Fear, and love, and hate.
My emotions control my mind,
Irrationality has me confined.

I’ve thought to be broken,
beyond repair.
But then I look up,
and you are there.
My walls are torn down,
My shackles unbound.

Hold me, embrace me,
hug me tight.
No longer alone;
With you I fight.
