please

Please…

I yearn
For one to hold me
In the darkness
Of my agony.

Locked
In a body
Wrecked
With pain.

My heart
Broken
Weary
Afraid…

I’ve tried
To be brave
Strong
Perfect

But the pain
Searing
Tearing
Ripping me apart

Ashamed
To ask
For comfort
Consolation

I yearn
For one to hold me
In the darkness
Of my agony.

Can you understand what my heart is saying?
Who is this crying in the dark?
Will you walk away in disgust now that you’ve seen
My body writhing in pain?

Don’t mock me with your eyes of pity,
Just reach out and gather me into your arms
In a silent embrace
Of love and acceptance.

I am capable of joy,
I can bring you laughter!
I want to soar high into the skies
And bring you the rainbow on my shoulders.

But in my moments of agony,
Pain which I never chose,
Will you cry with me?
Please, don’t walk away in fear, just hold me close?
