Hope

In the entire 24 hours
Your focus was just work

I just needed a second
Of your focus

I just needed a second
Of your attention

I just needed a second
To share my stresses with you

I just needed a second
Of your love

I just needed a second
Of your warmth

It's so hard to understand
that you're busy
But I'm trying hard to be supportive
And not get angry or frustrated

But it gets hard
When I keep making
My hopes smaller and smaller
And yet they don't get met

I just needed a second
To be close to you
To know that I'm still
Within your heart

I'll start tomorrow
With the hope of
A millisecond
