Couldn’t didn’t wouldn’t here you

Tell me I will wake up
From this prolonged dream 
Tell me my thoughts won’t get the best of me
Tell me I will be safe soon
Tell me I can be happy 
Tell me I won’t feel this way forever 
Tell me once more please
Sorry that I couldn’t
Didn’t 
Wouldn’t hear you 
Sorry that I didn’t listen
Sorry that I’m such a burden 
Sorry that I give people stress 
Sorry that I take up all your time 
But please just tell me once more
Tell me I will get better
Tell me I will be ok
Tell me I will be happy
Sorry that I couldn’t wouldn’t didn’t hear you 
I’m ready now
