Someone I want to know!

You stand so strong and your eyes shine so bright.

I want to know you as your voice begins to shake as you speak
about your past.

I want to be there for you when the pain of your past brings
tears to your eyes.

I want to make you feel safe again as it all pours out of you.

As you speak more about how it got worse before it got better.

So many scars but such a beautiful smile you shine at us.

Soon you sit down and it’s my turn and as I walk passed you
I hear good luck, you got this.

I smile and I stand up straight and as my voice comes out my
mouth, it’s strong and confident and I look at you.

And I know you want to know me too.
