The mess of not being loved
Hugged you were by your people
Deeper you miss the warmth
Does it ever go away? - you ask
Dusk to down you drown
Moan with the emptiness
Lessen it by opening your armsTides will wash over you
Do you know how?
Down, deep down, inside your heart
Embark on the answer
Plastered all over your need
Pleading for hugs, for warmth, for friends
Ends when you reflect it out
Around yourself, give love and embrace
Gracefully open your eyes to the sunshine
Chime with the melody of love
Adore yourself and everyone around
Come. Wake up and love.
