Don't save me,
                                      I scream
Rescue me from myself,
                                      I beg with my eyes
Don't touch me,
                                      I pull away
Hold me close,
                                      I'm longing to say
Let me find my own way,
                                      I say out loud
Lend me your guidance,
                                      I whisper deep inside
I feel nothing for anyone,
                                     Eyes closed to hide
I feel far too deeply to ever express,
                                      I hold it close to my heart
Leave me alone
                                      I push it all away
Stay with me
                                      It's what I want to say
I can never share my weakness
                                      I will it all away
Please, soothe the pains
                                      Just let me cry today
From a debate on the merits and what really goes on inside someone's head..

Sometimes the strongest people in the world just long for someone to lend them a place to rest.

**Update: I wanted to add something to the way the poem looked as it's "two" points of view rolled into one. ***
