Every once in a while

Every once in a while

could you please

tell me I am needed, wanted,

loved and appreciated?

It means so much to me.

Every once in a while

could you please

encourage, affirm,

show a little concern?

Sometimes I need to see.

Every once in a while

could you please

make the first move,

show that you're interested,

say thank you,

sustain the relationship?

Show that

our friendship isn't on my part only.

But if you can't

I'm still okay.

Because I understand

these are things not everyone can say.

It'd still make a big difference if you do.

Please and thank you.
