I’ll Be ‘Round if You Need Me…

I’ll be ‘round if you need me, just give me a holla, and, I’ll be right by your side, in a jiffy, I promise!!!

I’ll be ‘round if you need me, I’ll always, be close by, tagging along, shadowing you, and, everywhere you’ll go, there, I’ll be too. I’ll be ‘round if you need me, and, because I don’t know when you will need me, so, guess I’ll just have to, stick close by, and put my own life on hold then, as, you’d become, my VERY T-O-P priority in life, making you happy, is what keeps me happy, don’t you know…

not my photograph…

I’ll be ‘round if you need me, that, is a promise that I’d made, and I have every single intention of keeping it too, it’s just, that things in life, well, you KNOW how they get in the way, and, that, would be why, I can’t keep that long-ago, promise to keep you safe at all, but, you understand, how much, I’d wanted to, keep ALL my promises to you, right???

I’ll be ‘round if you need me, but, uh, I don’t need you, as you were, NEVER around when I actually needed you, and besides, I’m, all grown up (just like Little Red!!!), and your baby girl (whom you’d NEVER, EVER truly L-O-V-E-D, E-V-E-R!!!) is now, a GROWN woman, and she doesn’t want anything to do with Y-O-U, because??? Oh yeah, the FORTY-THREE years of FUCKING, nonstop ABUSE, is MORE than ENOUGH, and, I still am NOT compelled, to COUNT out ALL the years of LIFE I’d lost, and no, I’m still, NOWHERE N-E-A-R, my forties here, still just, at the beginning of my thirties………
