My Only Friend

Oh friend, please talk to me.
Share the burden, just walk with me.
Stop telling me you're fine,
Don't say you're just overthinking.

Overthinking is sinking.
I know, cos I've been there.
Drowning in my twisted thoughts,
A hundred times over.

Pressures on my mind,
Driving me to a manifestation of pain.
Wanting to puncture my heart,
To let it bleed out.

Please my friend, I'm here.
I've been alone a long, long time.
Don't wanna lose the one person
Who's worth living for.
