Analysis of Don't Leave Me Alone
Please don’t go,
Please stay here,
You don’t know what
Happens when I’m
Alone.
When I have time to think,
I think such things
That bring me down
And crush me
Until I’m crying
And my pillow
Is soaked.
Please stay here,
Please,
I need you here
To soothe me with
Your comforting words,
And to sing me
To sleep
Until the bad thoughts
Go away.
