I burnt out, I panicked and I suffocated
I locked myself and threw the key out
For the world was a frightening place
But I frightened myself more
As I noticed myself waiting
For any hand to reach out
For a voice to instill calm
For an arm to hold my fall
I fell
I broke
I felt my world shatter as I looked up
And saw the depths to which I had fallen
And then started clawing my way back
There is no safety net
