I'm stuck, lost, worried, and failing,

are all the things you can say. 

It's the general goodbye, hello, and anything new?

Then there are those moments,

when you have no where else to turn. 

Can I turn to you and say I need help when it's something you cannot control?

Every year I see those kids who are a few grades behind.

They just dissapear one day.

It's the words that they cannot say that destroys them. 

It's then they say.

"Can I turn to you and say I need help when it's something you cannot control?"
