You
are
never
there
                                  you say it hurts you so badly when i'm hurting
                                 and you weep for me on the telephone when i can barely keep myself awake
                               where were you when i was panicking again?
                                   where were you when i saw something that made me smile?
                                 where were you when i broke my leg?
some days
   i wish i was one of your friends
so you would spend as much time on me
as you do on them
