Elle Vampa

it’s not that i can’t do it alone
but I feel so lost without you
the sun does not rise the same
my nighttime does not turn to day
colours remain bleak and grey

it’s not that i am ready for you
still i wish you’d come and find me
to proudly hold my hand in yours
and finally break this witches’ curse
years of loneliness to reimburse

it’s not that i don’t want you near
but i’m afraid you’ll leave me
to break my heart in countless shards
tell painful truth in old harm’s rough:
“you’ll never be good enough”

i don’t ask for much, i swear i don’t
i just want you to cherish me
find me, keep me, hold me dear
let me know, ‘fore each day is done
that I am your Number One
