If I ask nicely, will you do as I say?
So if you come to visit this is what I need.......I need you to not be funny. I need you to not say sweet things. I need you to not make things feel perfect. I need you to not have your amazingly curly hair. I need you to not smile your pretty smile. I need you to not remind me of the fun we've had in the past. If you really want to know what I need, I need to remember the bad times too. I need to remember how miserable I felt. But most of all, I need the strength not to be amazed by you. So if you promise to do all of this, come and go with my heart still in tact, please come to Mobile to see me because I've missed you.
