Unsteady

Unsteady

If you leave me,
I won’t have you to lean on,
I won’t have you to count on,
And I’m afraid.

Is it soon?
I don’t know,
But you could help yourself help me,
If only we where steady.

I can’t lean on you if you’re unsteady,
But do I have a choice?
I’m afraid for our lives,
Afraid for our souls.

If you leave me,
I won’t have you to lean on,
I won’t have you to count on,
And I’m afraid.

I can’t stop this poem from coming out,
As I remember the unsteady times,
And think maybe it will be unsteady again.
I’m so afraid, oh, and I need you to lean on.

I’m only a girl,
But already now,
The shoulder is getting thin.
I can’t help myself be afraid.

If you leave me,
I won’t have you to lean on,
I won’t have you to count on,
And I’m afraid.

How will I live on,
With this unsteady feeling in my stomach?
How will I go on,
When I don’t have you to lean on?
