Days like today when I yearn for you most,
I don't want you anymore; I need you.
I long for your hands to lift me up,
to wipe my tears even though I can do it myself.
To remind me you're here to fight alongside me
To remind me that if I fall again, you'll pick me up
To make me laugh and smile
To soothe the lump that forms in my throat when I cry,
To tell me how much you love me
Remind me how much you're proud of me; proud of us.
Won't you remind me?
