take my hand and dont let go,
promise me you'll stay.
pull me in and keep me safe,
just please dont go away.

see me and still love me,
know me and still care,
accept my flawed existense,
swear that youll be there.

swaddle me and rock me,
drift me off to sleep.
wrap your arms around me,
no longer let me weep.

listen cause im speaking,
read me like a book,
see me every second
without having to look.

complete me like a puzzle,
know just what to say,
take my every worry,
and wash them all away.

love me cause you want to,
stay because you can.
when you think about tomorrow,
include me in your plan.

kill those things that hurt me,
strangle all my fears,
feel the pain that I feel,
join me in my tears.

for the things i cannot face alone,
face them in my place.
if I fall as I am running,
finish up my race.

please do not replace me,
for something else you see.
please tell me I'm special,
have love for only me.

hold me cause I'm small,
catch me cause I'm weak,
guide me cause I'm stupid,
acknowledge I'm a freak.

keep my every secret,
hold them in your heart.
listen and accept them<
without pulling them apart.

be the strength I've never had,
the love I've never known.
and when all others leave me,
be there when I'm alone.
