Impose on Me

I'm not angry. Speak to me.

I can see the pain that this has caused.
I can hear the agony in your tone of voice.

I know fear. Fear has no choice.
It tars your feet and binds your lungs.
There is no false evidence here.

We're alike, you know.
Gasping for the words to ask me first, you couldn't strike the
sounds.
Don't lose any more sleep.
I wouldn't have understood you.
I'm over it now.

Don't ask if I still love you or if we can still be friends.
You can lean on me, just send up a sign.

In my book, this is what family is all about.
I'll support you. There is nothing to forgive.

Impose on me. It's your privilege.
Call me now.
