Falling

You stopping me falling,

Oh so deep,

No longer a mind mauling,

Within this mental keep.

 

Being with you,

All is ok, 

Being with you,

I no longer psychologically stray. 

 

Before all of this,

I struggled,

An emotional twist,

Completely boggled.

 

I see the dark doors,

From before,

Right there ready,

Let me fall.

 

Down, down,

Down I went,

All energy drained from me,

The lower I went.

 

Really no bottom,

To this falling,

Just a continual drowning,

Within all of me. 

 

Fight, fight,

Fight some more,

I knew what I had to do,

To release from the darkened jaw. 

 

Connect with someone,

Connect with you,

Connect the part I long forgot,

Connecting to see this through. 

 

Now I see that darkned hole,

Beside me,

Around for so long,

Think it will never leave me. 

 

But I know how to stop,

This engulfing feeling,

Just reach out to connect,

That part that comforts me.
