"Hey... C-could you come over...?"
"...Now..."
"No...I-I'm scared..."
"I just don't trust myself right now..."
"...Please, I just need someone with me right now..."
"...Can you come over, please?"
Being scared and alone - a feeling inside yourself that you don't trust your own actions - a fear of doing something wrong and harmful. You feel like you are dangling by a thread, your fingers slipping. Below you is a dark void. Above you is a small ray of light. You don't have enough strength to hold on. You need help. You beg for help. You look for anyone you trust to help you. A doubt stirs in you: Is there anyone willing to help you when you call for it?
