I’m here in front of you.
Ready to share my pain.
No, I don’t need you to fix me.
I’m here opening my heart to you.
No, I don’t need another inspirational quote.
Can you see me?
Please don’t look away.
No, I’m not okay.
You can dry my tears,
but don’t tell me to stop crying.
I don’t need to hear another “should”, “could” or “have to”.
I just want you to listen to me.
Do you hear me?
No, I’m not okay.
Can you be uncomfortable with me?
Can you ask me how I’m doing next week?
And the week after?
I just need you to be here.
With me.
At this moment.
Tomorrow.
And the day after.
