Its the little things

Some days
I'm sure I'm a little
Hard to handle.
Some days
I could light up
Your darkest sky.
But some days
I need the little things
To be the big things
Because the little things
Mean everything to me.

I want you to kiss me
As I fall asleep
I want eat dinner together
And enjoy your presence
As if it were a present
A gift from the universe.
Because you are my gift
To cherish and to hold on to

But some days I feel you slip
From my fingers
Into a black hole in the universe

You could be so close
Yet seem so very far.

And the little things
Become the lesser things
And the lesser things
become nothing.
And you will eventually fade.

So when I ask you to help
Make dinner with me.

I don't actually need it.
I just want your attention.
Because the little things like that
Mean the most to me.
