You know I don't need you
But you know that I want you.
I want you pushing me around
On a fold out princess couch.
I want you plaiting my hair
After another family fight.
I want you giving me the best cuddle
Before my bombarded birthday dinner.
I want you blowing into taps as if it's a flute
Ignoring our grandmother's stare.
I want you giving me a goofy joke
After a crappy day.
I want you
I don't need you
But how did we get this lost
Along the way?
