I long for you to shine, I’m in the dark
I need your light and warmth, it is cold.
I long for you to show up, I’m afraid and I can’t see
I long for your presence, a friend I need.
The sorrow in my blanket, is in my nerves.
The weight of it, the holes in them,
The burden of life, no words to be spoken.
Why not rise so I can smile with you
You’re the only friend in my journal.
When you set, I long for you to rise.
