Parent
How difficult it must be
To see me
When I am scared
When I am distraught
When I am inconsolable
How can you bear to look at me
As I wither away
How can you try to help
It doesn't work
I need some time.
To be alone
To talk to myself
To answer questions
Please just let me be
Let me seep into my notes
Late at night let me cry
Let me wear what I like
Let me be who I want
If I want to dance let me dance
If I need a hug I'll come to you
If I need to be alone it's your job
To let me try and be happy
I'll be your baby soon again I promise
Like the moon I always come around
Wait for the darkness to be over
