Small Scale Swindler

I see your innocent lies.
The inner struggle.
I understand the inner position.
The need for crafty lines.

Eloquent apologies
Dear Father.....
Dear friend....
Sneaky lyrics
Poems
Dm's

It's never enough
Yet you cannot stand it.
But you must hold it
Every scrap, every drop
Holds you up

Steal a smile
A kiss, an hour, a pic,
A drop, a nip.
It's needed, you need it.

To line the bottom of your cup.
To hold you up.

Author's Note
This is about a friend of mine. He struggles emotionally and lacks the capacity to make consistent good choices.
Rather than stand his ground in any matter of principle he will always give in to salvage and retain any remnants of relationships with family and friends even if those people are the cause of his struggles.
This person deeply craves true affection and acceptance and will do anything to feel it only for a moment but in turn will do anything to run from any true connection.
Just a stolen moment is enough for a person who is not ready to grow. Those who hurt are the ones who hurt others. I hope he heals he really is a good person.
