To you especially

Story

I am always lonely

But I enjoy

Being lonely with you.

I don’t feel much

But you give me

The best little feelings I know.

I am rarely bothered by people

But only with you

I am truly comfortable.

Looking for my happy child

Because I grew up too fast.

Missing the times when I was young and wild

Even though I always knew

Those times wouldn’t last.

You told me to follow my guts

To listen to my body’s needs.

So I will be able to heal all those cuts

So I will be able to stop all those bleeds.

You told me to learn to love again

To find joy in childish things

So I will be able to break this chain

So I will be able to take whatever life brings.



Because I wanted to write one for you especially. You, the one who sees me day for day and manages to make every single one of those days so much better. You show me how to love life, how to show concern for the little things. You show me all the big and small emotions I thought I had lost. I hope for you to be around forever and let me be part of your colorful and bright days and your wine-drunk evenings and your deep and thoughtful nights. Thank you.
