"Initiate Contact"

Sebastian

I want to talk to you-
Feeling extremely shy
Intimidation- can't even say 'Goodbye'
I'm lost, stricken with my own guilt
Smiles that captivate my mind -
Heal my forthcoming pain
Tiny glare is seen with you
A hug?
release all my cries
All my if's, and's...., and why's?
Previous life we never spoke
Desperate attempt to save myself-
Asking you a question-
Can you be here for me? - as I begin to fade
Slowly, but surly - time has taken it's toll
Drained, worn out, befuddled
It this really me? 
Has life changed so much in a period of time?
I'm scared
Need to hide now-under my sheets
Beneath my bed?
Pray I survive the night
