I had another bad dream last night
and I realized what I really wanted is
someone who will wake up at 3:47 am
when I'm terrified to go back to sleep
and rub my back
and tell me it'll be okay
and let me lay my head on them
and let me fall asleep in peace
without that fear that comes from being alone and in the dark.
I just want comfort
someone to get me through the bad days
when I feel like life isn't worth it for me anymore
but to make the good days even better too.
I'm a simple person
I don't ask for much
yes, I sometimes will be withdrawn
and too deep into myself to love you like I should
but I promise to love you
and to always remember how lucky I am to have you.
I might be abrasive
I might be irritable
but I'll find it in me to treat you like you deserve.
I know it won't happen
but that's okay
I'm used to falling asleep alone on those nights.
