Q: What do you want from me?

A:
I want your restless days
The days you complain about
The days you wish you could fast forward
Let me fill them with hopes and dreams
And make you wish it never ends

I want your sleepless nights,
your frustrations and your regrets
Let me take it from you
and give you peaceful sleep in return.

I want the pain you carry around like a cross
The pain you so brilliantly conceal from others
The pain I feel in your words and in your silence
Let me take it from you,  
and overwhelm you with happiness in return.

I want your broken pieces
The ones scattered all over the place
waiting to be picked up
Let me glue it back with much care and love
so you never feel broken again.

Soon you'll realize there is nothing left
for you to worry about, 
Because I'd have taken it all from you.
And when you finally overcome all your worries
you may not like me anymore
For people seldom care about the souls
who are broken and lost.

I'll end this rant with few more lines
So hear it when I say this to you
Even if everything fails, and you still remain the same
 I'd still care about you, perhaps even more
For as long as I'm alive,
you'll never be left alone. 

PS: thank you for making me write down my thoughts.
