Take care of me.

Wrap me up in blankets
And warm my heart
With soup and love.

Remind me why I’m here.

Tell me, with sincerity,
That you care about everything
I think,
Say,
And do,
And you want to be there to hear
Every little part of it.

Take care of me.

Make me realise, not for the first time,
That my existence is worthwhile,
And that yours wouldn’t be the same
If I weren’t here.

Take care of me.

Caress my innermost fears,
Not with touch, but with an emotion
That I haven’t seen for too long.

Take care of me.
This isn't part of my challenge.
