We scream silently aching
reaching out.
Alone in the vast sea
we seek another
to be with us
who knows us
“be with me”
Wanting to pull close
and fearing the
fall
we hang on the
edge
call to
the other.
hearing,
sometimes we
plummet over, down
hitting the ground
hurting ourselves
Again, (and i'm just so tired of waking up all alone)
fearing trembling inching forward
we meet and for a time
comfort the other.
