If only I could be there
The way that you need
The way that you want me to be
But I truly can't right now
I just wish you understood
Sometimes I wish you could just step into my head
Peer right in
At my thoughts
Even worries
And long dwelt out fears
There's so much going on right now
So much to take in
You say I'm too busy for you
Do you think I like to be how I am right now?
Do you think I like running around
Losing my head
Stressing and worrying and just...
Holding myself up by a noose?
I wish I could just stop time
Pause everything in just a single frame
And just breathe a little here
Breathe a little there
Just let go
Like you seem to be
But everytime I get a simple glimpse of calm
Something else comes into play
And I'm stressin all over again
Weight upon weight is sat right upon my shoulder
Burying me within even more rubble
Taking away all energy
All chance of relief.
Reason for writing:
My best friend is arguing about never being able to see me, that I'm too busy for her.... all the while I'm trying my best to pull up my grades, work, get things done around my house, and take care of myself.
