Listens carefully
Hopes beyond what is required
Cries for others
Distracts me from myself
Laughs deeply, loudly
Pushes me
Whispers dreams
Sees who I really am
Diffuses fear so I never give up
Speaks freely, honestly
Cares enough to scream
Runs with me, into me
Hears between the lines
Dares to believe that we are great
Surreal
Sober
Asleep
Still
Death couldn't silence what you spoke over me,
what you hoped I'd be
