Me, here, alone
You, there, not alone
You're surrounded by people
You're happy with them
They give you smiles, laughter and interesting conversations
Some things that I can't give to you anymore
I'm all dried up
Washed out
I'm like a dead locust clinging onto a blade of grass in a grassland
You're the grassland
Me being alive or not is not significant
Me being there or not is not significant
I'm not significant to you
I'm nothing
I know I'm nothing but...
I don't want you to be there
I don't want to be here
I don't want you to be surrounded with them
I don't want to be alone
I want to be by you
I want you
I want to make you smile so brightly, your cheeks end up aching
I want to make you laugh so much that the sound you make is embedded in my memory forever
I want to talk to you so much that we'd always run out on what to say
I want to be by you
I know I'm nothing
I know that I'm insignificant
But, please
Give me a chance
Let me be by you
Me, not alone, with you
You, not with them, with me
