Pain was never pretty,
illness was never "in,"
I'm not looking for anyone to save me,
I'd just like to make someone happy,
I'd just like to have a friend.
One who doesn't leave when my time with them has to end.

Sick was never jealousy envoking,
and crying till 2 A.M.
was a thought unvisited.
I don't long for someone to come along and hug me,
but I can still imagine
that somebody enjoys my company,
and that we can get lost in senseless fun.

i don't wanna be too much of a downer right now, and a lot of the time i am not as pessimistic as my writing.
this is just an attempt at saying "don't romanticise (mental) illness." type of thing. byee...
