Lifeline

Lifeline

Sometimes I return to the chat window

See the things you said to me

Search for inspiration

Sometimes I scroll back a long way

See the things I said to you

Search for acceptance

Sometimes I hear your voice on the phone

Hear the things you said to me

Searching for hope

Sometimes I hear my voice in my head

Practicing what I would say to you

Searching for progress

Sometimes you cling to such small words

'Afraid', 'sick', 'angry', 'alone',

To guide your encouragement

Sometimes I cling to such small words

'Sweetie', 'love', 'kiddo', 'hug',

To make me feel less alone.

Sometimes I live for two words alone:

'I'm here'.

Sometimes you live for two words alone:

'I'm here'.
