The need


How can you not need me

Was I too rough to the touch

Did I love you too much 

Or was my love not enough

Did I scare you with my heart

Did I destroy a new start

Did I take you out the dark 

Did I kill a new spark

How dare you say you dont need me 

How dare you say you cant care

When they all turned their backs

You can't say I wasnt there

One day you'll look back and think

I needed her indeed 

I needed her like the air I need to breathe

-Evelyn Denise Brown
