I want to be the person
You think of in the middle of the night
When you can’t sleep
Or wake up from a nightmare.
I want to be the person
Who the thought of
Makes you feel safe.
I want to be the person
You have deep conversations with
When you want nothing more than to sleep.
I want to be the person
Who the thought of
Makes you smile like a fool.
I want to be the person
You cry over
When I leave.
