Hey,
I dont really know you
But I've seen you everywhere
Always miraculously
Walking in the rain.
I know you feel
Like your the only one
With real problems
And that it somehow
Makes you feel special
I know your father died
I know you did too
And you've been haunting life
Like a little grey dream
Ever since
I know that you think
The least of yourself
And that maybe
You aren't worth the time
To understand
But you talk anyway
With your eyes
With your lost shoulders
With the subtle smirk
And a lazy three fingered wave
And so I listen
I know you need help
With the shattered bits
The lines on your wrists
But you won't ask
And I sure as hell
Won't leave you here.

Love can be many things. Sometimes its being close enough for someone to grab but far enough for someone to breathe.
