Will you hover over someone else?
I have been trying to concentrate on my being
Give me my laughs back
I, who need the reminder of their sound
Would like to bring them back to the surface
I have been drinking my tears to gain more days
I did not tell you about my head
Late at night, it needs support
Let me hear the words I need
You prioritize only those
Which satisfy your mouth
Then, I ask you to say them
To one who accepts their comfort
And will follow you far into their meaning
