and if you are, what of?
are you afraid that they will desert you?
are you afraid they'll never come back?
it is ok, you know, it's ok,
they may come back or they may never,
but here, here you have everything.
and in the dark, she hopes
she laughs out loud,
she hears you, here.
and she can only hope, only hope you are here with her,
and not just a ghost.
she hears the ghosts, many times, these days.
she doesn't sleep well, these days.
but it is a different unwell, and maybe a different sleep.
it makes her eyes water,
but not in the old way.
we know better than that, now,
and we no longer let it catch us.
