I needed attention
In the noise of distraction

I needed a haven
In the torrent of the storm

I needed water
In the midst of the desert

I needed oxygen
In the depths of outer space

I needed to be seen
But all around me were blind

I needed touch
But no one reached out

I needed guidance
But there was no GPS

I needed truth
Yet was bathed in lies

I needed you
I needed someone
But no one showed up.
