Inside your mind

 You have warned me several times now
That inside your mind is unsafe
I decided to venture into it anyhow
And I didn't care
For you are a person I care for
And I wish to be by you in your place
My dearest one, the one over them all
I wish to wear your face
And be you for a day or two
Learn what it's like to be yourself
Explore the intersections
Of your mind
The machinations that govern the rules
The laws and facts that are followed
The lies and the truths
The fear of tomorrow
The anxiety of today
The longing for the past
The knowledge that nothing you can do
Will make it ever pass
Besides wait and sit still
Lie silent in the night
Choose to stay ill
Because you have no energy to fight
Inside your mind
A place forlorn
Wish I could go there
And provide you hope
You're not on your own
I am right here
By your side, by you
My dear
Pray tell me what goes there
And who lurks in the shadows
Pray tell me my dearest
What causes the shallows
To be overrun with water
Of thoughts and anger
Pray tell me my sweetest
What causes you anguish
I am here, forever I'll be
For as long you as you accept me
Learn to take me within you
Let me aid you, help you breathe
And make you live again
My dearest you're not insane
You're simply my friend
I am hurt like you
My mind's unsafe like yours
But in the depth of the night
You're not alone
And neither am I
I told you that before
I redeem myself in the eyes
Of those which I chose
Those I deemed to be near
I deemed to be dear
I deemed to be worthy of knowing my fears
I deemed to trust
I deemed are just
I deemed will know what's best when I don't
And you are amongst the list
You are not a guest
You might've arrived late
But it's all the same to me
So let me inside your mind sometimes
Air out your problems please
I promise you it'll all be fine
But please, breathe
