All I need is you

And low natural light infiltrating the room

We often play pretend in our minds and while we think

We think lightly of our due dates, more if we’re on time

You taught me, how to make sacrifices?

When I ate and you don't

When there was no grain at home.

When you compels me every evening,

To write my name, when I ...
