april 28th

i am a pathetic child

scrambling for your warmth

please father spare me the time it will take my wounds to heal

when you lock me in the closet for the wrong i've done may i come out just once to steal a kiss?

can i find myself and my worthiness in the grips that is your imagined bliss

don't tell me to leave i'm still holding out

tell me you love me and i'll be good forever

don't tell me to leave please

i'll wait here as long as you want
