Refuge

Refuge

A Poem by AshleyDeyPoetry
"

Hitting my lowest low right before my best friend's eyes.

"

I want to give up

I told you this as I sobbed

Unable to look at you

As I fully broke down

Showing just how truly broken I am

Exposing you to the storm that rages in my chest

That only ever seems to calm in your presence


I am trying to hold on for you

As it is becoming increasingly difficult to continue on for myself

I try to maintain a sense of normality

Struggle to piece myself back together

So you don’t have to worry

But the fact of the matter is

I need you

And you should definitely worry
