I think that in the end
All we need is not a lover,
But someone to believe in us.
Someone like a mother

Someone who can see us
Even with all of our mistakes
And all the faults they see in us
And still go on and say

With a fond smile and a
Thoughtful nod, and certainty they
Affirm "you're gonna be alright,
"You're gonna be okay."
Based on a bathroom thought "I think that in the end all we need is not someone to love us, but someone to believe in us. Someone who can look at us after all the mistakes we've made and all the faults they have seen in us, and still say with a fond smile and a thoughtful nod, "you're gonna be alright, I can tell." "
