Noted, understood, acknowledged,
Written down, conveyed along,
Thanked effusively for listening,
Taking that into account.

Asked around if someone's tried this,
Paid in favours for the knowledge,
Whispered back to you in secret:
here you go, that's where to look next...


Something called for feigning interest,
Needn't feign it, it's already there,
Stuck around for several years now,
Noticed and considered for a friend,

For a friend, a thousand answers,
Hidden where they'll never see the light;
If it's lied, it's somewhat true,
Enough that you could act and be all right.


I know
The things that you've tried;

I chose it,
Don't you dare lose me it

Before I manage to find
A confidence grounded enough,
But if I thought it plausible, it would be already there.

I care,
Or show that I care;

I'll do it,
What do you want from me?

As long as
All that you need
Isn't prayer, isn't genuine prayer...
