Thanks For Being There

I know I take up
Way too much of your time,
But it's really nice to have
Someone to talk to.
Someone who listens and (technically)
Isn't allowed to judge,
Even though I know you do,
I can see it in your eyes
And hear it in your 'protective parent' lecture.
But you listen before you judge;
Listen before you lecture or give advice;
You listen.
Thank you for your time...
