Come For Me Now

The first piece of writing I'll post is this: my one attempt at poetry that rhymes and has a chorus, one might say it's almost a song. But anyway, my first well-guarded piece:

Stumbling down
This path all alone,
I hate all the hurt
And I hate that you know.
These secrets I kept
Deep inside me
Were everything you
Were not meant to see.

Come for me now,
Take me away,
Catch all my fears,
Keep them at bay.
Not scared of the world,
Nor afraid of the sea,
But terrified now
By what's hidden in me.

And all of that time
As the shadows drew close,
I started to fade,
I was giving up hope.
Through all of the lies
You saw the truth,
This cry from my heart
Was calling to you:

Come for me now,
Take me away,
Catch all my fears,
Keep them at bay.
Not scared of the world,
Nor afraid of the sea,
But terrified now
By what's hidden in me.

But now I can see,
And my eyes open wide,
In the heart of the dark
I had you at my side.
You never left me
As I tried to leave you,
When I lost my way,
And stumbled: a fool.

But you came for me then,
And took me away,
Caught all my fears,
Kept them at bay.
Not scared of the world,
Nor afraid of the sea,
I'm healing now,
By your presence with me.


So... not sure how song-like it actually sounds, but if you actually see this and have some opinion you'd like to state, go for it.
