She’s doesn’t want someone to share her problems with
she wants someone to tell her the world is alright,
that she can make a difference
that things will be better
she wants someone to tell her that she matters.

i told her “the world is ok dear”
we’re all in it together
everything will be alright forever,
and ever,
and ever.

even though it doesn’t seem so always
things fall apart like they always do
my words lose their weight and
her smiles began to fade
our eyes but wander aimlessly.

i told her “but the world is ok dear”
everything you ever know will one day
be just a tiny mark on our collective memory
we’re all in it together
now and always.

she doesn’t want someone to talk to
she just wants someone to touch her
make her little heart beat just a tiny bit stronger and
make her day go a little faster
she wants someone to make her feel
like she’s living life to the fullest...

are you?
