Came across this on one of my
old journals:
Don't want a lover
don't want a leech
don't want a baby
I'd have to teach.
Just want that company
just want that ear
or a shoulder to cry on
belonging to
a friend.
I say I want "a boarder"
but what I want
is company
nothing less
nothing more.
And so I start
again
to search for that
which hasn't yet
come.
