Let me stay here, safe, for a while.

I want some company now.

A good conversation. An affectionate touch.

Someone to settle my soul.

Uninterrupted. Safe. Sanctity.

I read that to judge is to cast someone out of your company. I'm tired of being watched. Of hoping to please.

    I know that feeling of longing.

    To quote one of my new favorite books, The Heart is a Lonely Hunter, "Her face felt like it was scattered in pieces and she could not keep it straight. The feeling was a whole lot worse than being hungry for any dinner, yet it was like that. I want--I want--I want--was all that she coul think about--but just what this real want was she did not know."
