Just "Someone"


Your mother just wants someone to do the chores.

Your sister just wants someone to blame it on.

Your brother just wants someone to play with.

Your father just wants someone to understand.

Your grandmother just wants someone to listen.

Your aunt just wants someone to be with,

But I don’t want just “someone”

I just want you.
