Allow me once in a while
To pamper you
As if you were a kid.
To wipe the bread crumbs
From the corner of your mouth.
To get your favourite ice-cream.
Allow me very often so
To be the support
Your strong being can lean on.
To hold your hand
When you are nervous as hell.
To wipe those ocassional tears.
Allow me never ever
To miss you
And not tell you.
To scream at you
And not make up.
To leave things hanging.
Allow me, just allow me
To be that someone
I know I can be.
I can try on my own.
But it’s not the same
As it is when you allow me.
Beautiful expression, Mia, of what stirs our hearts and motivates us to pursue relationships (be they romantic or not) in the first place.
We live life, and you set it to music. I hope you appreciate how exceptional a talent that is.

Firstly, thank you so much for your kind words! They brought a big smile to my face. š Funnily enough, I don’t take myself too seriously because I know what that does to people. But yes, I do believe in myself. š
