Look at my hands. Look how long they hav been grasping for something

  Look at my hands. Look how long they hav been grasping for
  something so far out of reach. Look how long they have been
  waiting to hold you.

I pray for you to stay. But I don't really believe in deities, so I supposed they don't believe in me either.
Do you not see? How, how the sky looks down on you with simplistic adoration, how it tries, so hard, to give you a horizon as glorious as you? Do you not see, how flowers sigh and grow, in hopes that you may pick them? Please, oh, please tell me you notice the way the grass grows, how it brings forth the greenest blades just for you, or how the sky whispers in clouds about your beauty...Tell me, do you see?

i don't know his favorite color or if he likes honey with his tea or if he even likes tea i don't know what song he listens to when he's upset and i don't know what his favorite cereal is but i do know his smile is amazing and his laugh is really loud but it's kind of like music to me and his clothes are really simple but they look really cute on him and he wears glasses sometimes and he looks good with or without them and i really wish i knew all these things so i know what song to play for him when he's upset and if he wants tea i wanna know if i should put honey in it (if he likes tea) and what type of cereal he wants when he wants some but i'll never know because i'm the shy girl across the room who hides behind her hair and the sleeves of her hoodies and glances at him when she thinks he's not looking and he never is
"I babysat this six year old, and I was wearing shorts today.. and my scars were showing, I guess. He poked them and he said, "I know how those got there." I replied, "How?" He looked at me with a straight face and he said, 'I've seen them before. My big sister had them, and she said mean people put them on your body when they weren't nice to you, because when people are mean to you, you end up being mean to yourself. My big sister went away. I don't know where she went. Mommy said she's on a happy vacation somewhere, because she was too sad here. I miss her. Don't go on a vacation, please.'"
In first grade, there was this boy who spent the year literally believing he had 2 right hands because when he was learning his 'right' and 'left', his mom would say 'right' when he was correct.
