Safe

push you away
and slowly
you come back to me

i need your space
your indifference
it comforts me

you’ve never seen
my best face
never seen me shine

i could leave this
but i’ll stay
think i’d miss your voice

if this is nothing
don’t tell me
i’m good at fooling myself

if this is something
be careful
i’m no good at things that don’t end

“That’s all that I need. Yeah, someone else to cling to. Someone I can lean on until I don’t need to…”
