    Me Too

    Take me on a trip through your mind
    Let me swing from the twisting vines
    Once so small
    Now have grown so long
    It’s those you use to hide
    Let me dissect every piece
    I want to know all the secrets you keep
    What you tell no one else
    Never asking for help
    That is where I want to dig deep
    Trudging through the muck of your brain
    It’s hard to get my vision through the rain
    Thunder shakes me
    Earth quaking
    Tripping on all of the pain
    Floating on the ship that drives you mad
    Climbing all the way up the mast
    Crumbles with corrosion
    As I look out into your ocean
    Once blue is now polluted black
    Over the edge I fall off
    Swimming through the time that you lost
    Life vest ripping at the seams
    Choking on your screams
    Trying to make sense of your thoughts
    You don’t like it here but you stay
    Everyone seems so far away
    No one to pull you to shore
    When you can’t take anymore
    Left to drown in your dismay
    Finally I make my way out
    Curiosity becomes unwound
    I trip and I stumble
    Falling through your rubble
    I can see now why you have doubt
    You give me your hand and I take you
    On the same journey I just came through
    Now you will see you’re not so lonely
    I look at you and say “me too”
