Stay Up With Me Jhené Aiko

afraid to say
"i’d like it very much if….
you’d stay and …..
lose sleep with me tonight”
not my misery needing company….
it is
just me ….
i might,
not feel lonely on most days…..
but tonight reminds me of Summer.
reminds me that i have
and am not
a kid now,
and that i am missing a brother.
go to call a sister…
his name is right with hers,

i haven’t deleted his number.
i don’t want to tell you all that he meant to me…
and have you say how you wish you’d met him .
i don’t want to cry
and confess
“ now i feel….
as time passes by
i’ll forget him “
and you look at me like
“I wish I could help”
but your father was there
and you’ve always had help
and your brother’s still calling
and you’ve always been dealt
