Lying down and late night talks

Sometimes I'm bored.
Bored of life,
Bored of breathing.

But then I talk to my friends.
Sometimes things aren't so bad,
Sometimes things get worse.

We talk until two am,
We talk until we're tired,
We talk until we can't talk anymore.

I lay down, phone in hand,
Scrolling through contacts,
Deciding on whose name my thumb will land.

They pick up,
We talk
About everything

About pasts,
About futures,
About right now.

All I want to do is lay down next to them,
Look up at the ceiling,
And just talk.

Just feel close to someone,
Be able to feel them next to me,
Not just an illusion in my half asleep state.

And then I realise,
Maybe I'm just lonely.
Alone in need.

I want love,
I want care,
I want to feel somebody there.

I don't want to be alone anymore,
But for now,
All I can do is lay down and talk.

Because,
At least they listen,
My friends.

They can't kiss me,
Can't love me,
In that way.

But they care
Enough about me,
To make me feel like staying here.

They give me reasons to smile,
And reasons to cry.
I really don't want to say goodbye.

Though I haven't found love,
I'm not bored anymore.
Maybe that's why I cherish my friends the most of all.
