What if things weren’t as they seem?
What if he/she/ they/we/us was putting up another wall without realizing it?
What if she/he/they/we/us didn’t want to let anyone in?
What if my/mine/me/I/her/she/we would rather stay where he/she/they/we/us/their/his/her spot?
Not saying that my/mine/me/I/her/she wants to and not saying that my/mine/me/I/her/she/we doesn’t want to

Find me, grab me, reach for me, pull me up
don’t take no for an answer
my arms and legs can’t tread water for much longer
send a raft, a floatation devise, anything
don’t listen to my words
look at my arms and legs struggling to keep going
look at my eyes, closely
they are pleading
there are words, tell you I’m okay
but in my eyes they say don’t go away
I didn’t want to be here but
somewhere I got lost
I tried to go my own way but strayed too far
come find me, grab me, reach for me, pull me up
and please please don’t take no for an answer
