Needing Staring out across an endless plain Far as you can see there is nothing Staring out across an endless life Far as you can see there is pain Journey across the boundless earth Not meeting another on their way Journey across your existence Not meeting another to give you worth Being in a crowd with people all around To be overlooked and avoided Being there offering yourself To be judged worthless and turned down Turning within yourself for comfort Holding all the grief inside Turning inside for validation Holding the pieces of your heart Needing a word, a touch Needing only that much Needing some one to say Needing you I am today
