Love Me

 

Thirsty I’m thirsty

Anxiety fills my temple

Complicated but oh so simple

Restless wondering confused on edge

Life is a cliff I’m standin on edge

Winds are whirling circling around

I’m afraid of heights won’t look to the ground

Detached obsessed depressed aloof.

Look! Inside my heart there is the proof

Isolated devastated torn in two

Yearning for something but what or who

Eyes to see ears that hear

Neither of these cast out fear

Grown ass man lil boy desires

Childlike fantasies warmth of the fire

Can’t stretch my arms?  Within my reach?

Daddy’s been dead so Popa can’t preach

Outside I breathe inside I choke

Exhale in me break up the smoke

At a premium in this world today

Folks just take – give none away

Maybe God’s got some – Maybe I’ll pray

Tried my best but I’m not the one

It darkens fast in the Midnight Sun

Destiny’s quest what will be will be

But I’d be grateful –  4 someone to love me
