Being seen and heard
Feels so good
Once you've experienced it
Especially from family

One comment can't
Hurt you because
You're on top of the world

You might doubt your
Worth at the moment

But you deserve that affection and want

Then it's gone
Gone to the next person in line
And you go straight to the back

Not knowing when
That euphoric feeling will
Return

You want it so badly
It's an addiction

You do whatever possible
To get that sensation
Of being wanted

You please others hoping
To get off on their
Love and attention
On you

It's already there
Not needing to be said
It's just natural
