If I am talking to you,
You don’t always have to talk.
Not your advices, nor your consolations,
If I am talking to you,
I’ll just ask you to stay around.
To let me know that you’re there,
And will always be.
Exhausted, most nights,
I patiently wait for gentle hands,
To hold me tight.
If am talking to you,
Assure me, that you understand.
Tell me, tell me it’s okay to cry.
Without saying a word,
Make your presence felt,
Often, all I need is,
Just.
To be heard.
