I need someone to come in
Stop this damage being done to me
On a daily basis.
Someone to hear me cry
And hate it.
Someone to come in and tell them
They can’t hurt me anymore
That I’m not what they think
Not what they say
Not what they are trying to convince me
I am.
Maybe need is the wrong word
Want desperately is more precise.
I want someone to protect me
From everyone
Everything
In my life
That hurts
Too much
To deal with on my own.
Maybe he can have some armor
Not the shiny kind
But the banged up kind
To show he has been in battle
And knows what he is doing.
Josephine Ranes 
And I need him
This speaks to me so much, it’s insane. Precisely what I’ve been thinking but had never thought to put in writing. ❤
