You Understand Too Much,It Kills Me

The Faster I run
the farther away you become.
Can't you hear me crying,
my only life line,my sun?

I need your HELP,
I need your VOICE.
I need you to keep me sane,
and you're my only choice.

I keep sinking deeper without you
even if I don't show it.
I need you to come
help me out of this pit.

If what I'm writing isn't
making you see why,
why you're the first person I go to.
One of the few who've seen me cry.

I fully let you in,the person
who's seen me so vulnerable.
That's why I need to talk
to you about this pain.
