Sometimes

Sometimes I reach out just because I need to know you're there.
Sometimes my feelings overwhelm me and I feel like drowning in them.
Sometimes I get so scared of silence and wish my life to be filled with noise.
Sometimes the noise makes me sad.
Sometimes I get so angry at the world, at it's cruelty, at injustice, at the belittling of those in need, at the selfishness, the unfairness, the hatred and the dark.
Sometimes an unlooked for flower, or the sound of carefree laughter ringing out shames me for my anger and I am a smaller man in a wider more wonderful world.
Sometimes I need you so much, and I don't know how to tell you.
Sometimes my feelings frighten me, at their intensity and sudden onset.
Sometimes the loneliness is unbearable.
Sometimes I will assure you I'm OK.
Sometimes I am lying.
Sometimes all I want is a hug.
Sometimes I am afraid to ask for it.
Sometimes I forget how wonderful you are.
Sometimes I wish you knew how much you mean to me.
Sometimes I would give you my world.
Sometimes I feel I cannot cope anymore.
Sometimes the words that hurt me wont stop replaying in my head.
Sometimes I am utterly lost.
Sometimes I want the world to be OK, so I can stop worrying for a little while.
Sometimes the loneliness, the loneliness, the loneliness, in a crowded room, on my own, all day and all night, the loneliness.
Sometimes I just want to talk, just talk and let words repair my heart.
Sometimes I'm so scared, so small, so hidden.
Sometimes I just want a moment, just one moment to tell you I care.
Sometimes my heart breaks, and no one knows.
Sometimes.....
