If all the heat and fire
From every comet
That has ever flown
Across your ice blue

Skies

Since the dawn of time

Were to be combined
Into one unflickering flame
An eternal burning fire
That doesn't need a name

And all the stars would gasp
As it streamed across
your ocean

Sky

That is all the anger

I deserve from you.

If you ever find it
In your solar system

That's okay

It's okay to be angry


Especially with me.

I haven't spent
Enough time around you
To know
When you're at your worst

And that's not because
I haven't wanted to

But I picture you
In the dark
Alone
Not telling your mothers anything
Except
"I don't wanna leave home"
Dark days
For all of us
Come and go
But what if they don't go?

What if you can't let go of him
Or her
And you find yourself stranded in an ocean of your own isolation
My dear
I don't ever want you to think you're alone
I know how hard it is to just
Pick up the phone

But I need you
And if your dark days get darker
And you need me
I will bring a boat
I will not ever let you drown
You were not left for dead
I know you think your ship is sinking
But just keep up your head
Until I come and get you

Because that's what I do for friends.
