Dependancy
The dawn breaks through the dark
And I sit patiently waiting for the love that’s coming my way
If none is due to me
I won’t survive the winds I will not survive today
The sun will swell my tongue
My belly will grumble for sustenance is missing
There’s not enough will
I need a strong hand to protect and guide my blind eyes
If just for a moment
A loving heart will come my way
Not pass by me like I have no right to breathe
Healthy and unhealthy oxygen to fill my lungs
If for just a moment
A heart would think better than a mind
I could survive and learn the ways of life and be
Dependent
On only me
