please

i don't want you to make me whole
i don't want you to fix me up
i don't need you to worry, bitch or moan for me
all i want is a hug, and if you're up for it, an open ear
and a little empathy
and a little kindness here and there
i'm not looking to be patched up, remodeled or refurbished
i'm not looking to be as good as new
