My mind is both my strongest asset and the most damning part of myself...
for someone who perchance could understand
My past misdeeds, and still my love return---
a guardian whose calm could stay my hand?
For such a one I have in all of you
who tell me ev'ry day you hold me dear;
I love you all; I know you love me too
but sometimes even you can't quell my fear.
Sometimes I feel as though I've fallen out
of contact with the world we all have built.
But how could I presume to hold such doubt?
My questions, then, bring nothing back but guilt.
Have faith, my friends: all that I need, you give;
I pray one day my mind will let me live.

Insecurity
Why does my heart irrationally yearnfor someone who perchance could understand
My past misdeeds, and still my love return---
a guardian whose calm could stay my hand?
For such a one I have in all of you
who tell me ev'ry day you hold me dear;
I love you all; I know you love me too
but sometimes even you can't quell my fear.
Sometimes I feel as though I've fallen out
of contact with the world we all have built.
But how could I presume to hold such doubt?
My questions, then, bring nothing back but guilt.
Have faith, my friends: all that I need, you give;
I pray one day my mind will let me live.
