I Need You

I need you To clutch me tight and Wipe my tears away. Telling me ‘I know it looks bad but it’ll get better’. I need hope To come along and Recuse me from The ceaseless Pit I recurrently fall into. I need someone To be there when I have my blade. To say ‘Don’t damage your beauty’. But you aren’t there. You don’t listen; Not to me. I’m never there for you, You completely Shut me out. As if I don’t care. Like I’m not good enough. Too pathetic; too worthless. Not worth The trouble. So no one takes My blade from me. And the angry lines slash My arm In every direction. So there is a hopeless void Inside of me, That grows bigger Every day. As you push me further away from you. And I cry, Every night I cry myself To sleep. Focusing on beaten Broken hearts. Because without you there is no reason to go on.
