I'm cold and scared
Don't know why
Maybe it's things I hold inside
They tear me open
Bit by bit
Wish I wasn't seen like this
Come and see me
Come and stay
But when I cry, please turn away
I trust you
With all my heart
But right now,
It's just too hard

When we're going through trials, sometimes it feels as if you're all alone and may explode. Reach out and trust those around you, they really do care.

Invictus
Out of the night that covers me,
Black as the Pit from pole to pole,
I thank whatever gods may be
For my unconquerable soul.

In the fell clutch of circumstance
I have not winced nor cried aloud.
Under the bludgeonings of chance
My head is bloody, but unbowed.

Beyond this place of wrath and tears
Looms but the Horror of the shade,
And yet the menace of the years
Finds, and shall find, me unafraid.

It matters not how strait the gate,
How charged with punishments the scroll.
I am the master of my fate:
I am the captain of my soul.

William Ernest Henley
