I Need You to Need Me
You came into my life needing me
to hold you, to console you
when love had left you
when he had said he was not
what he was
for you.
And so I took you in
the heartbroken you
the insecure you
the unloved you
all of you
and I held you,
consoled you
told you
and showed you
I love you, I love you, I love you.
So you shared your despair
with clear skies in your eyes
and told me boldly
I need you to need me.
You came into my life needing me
and now I need you to need me,
need you to hold me, to console me,
but you have departed from me
and have said to me
you’d never been what you were –
to me.
