my sake.

i don't like this

this having nothing.

doesn't anybody ever feel this way?
don't they ever feel
like they just
need someone?

it doesn't matter who.

i don't care who.

but does anybody know
what i mean?
what I need?

i love a few to death
and i know a couple care.

but doesn't anybody ever feel this way?

i would have someone
but it doesn't quite count.
they don't really count
until they give a damn.

but it's okay
and i dont need them to
because all that counts
is what i know
and it pulls at my heart
and it pounds at my spirit
but they are peaceful and happy
they dont need me

i wont let somebody
suffer for my sake
i wont ever ask
that they do something for me

but to know that they would
and to know that they care
and to know that they realize
i just need them there
that would be enough for me.

do you ever feel like that?
