Something's holding me down

I was once in depression
Once in happiness
Once in love
Once in loneliness

But I'm here
No matter where I am
I'm still here
By myself

Maybe with people
Maybe by myself
But I'll be here
As long as I'm alive

I once wanted to slit my skin
But drew with markers instead
I couldn't live with myself if I did
And I'm glad I didn't start

When I'm dancing to music
I feel so many emotions
I just wish someone could share it
With me

As I sit on the ground
Back against the wall
Legs out
I put my hands under my knees
So I don't fall

I know I'll still be here

When I am scared,
Lonely,
Tired,
Or just simply missing something

I grip my hand with the other
Overlapping

It's like there's someone I've known for a long time
Holding my hand
Encouraging me
That I'm fine

I will always be glad for that
That I have self control
I'm glad
For so much...
