My mind is a forest fire
What I mean is
Everything is burning and dying
It is too much for me to handle and yet
He can put it out like it's a candle in the wind
My mind is a hurricane
What I mean is
It is chaos
It is my own mind rebelling against itself
It causes destruction and leaves nothing in it's wake
He is the eye of the storm
He is the calm in the midst of tornados and fear
My mind is a haunted carnival
What I mean is
A place that once seemed fun, a place that used to bring joy
Is a wasteland of memories and ghosts of the past
It strikes fear to those who enter into it as the night cloaks you in darkness
He is the daybreak
He is the ferris wheel that isn't so scary after all
He is the truth and the light in the midst of fear
What I mean is...
I need him
I need him to keep me safe
I need him to keep me calm
I need him to love me
