Nothing is guaranteed
No wishes are ever free
I can only give you my promise
That I'll be there when you need me
To lift you off your tattered knees
To say your something special
I know its not much
Its not concrete but know I will try
Just to see you smile
Even if its for just a while
Never lose sight that you are in my heart
 
When its dark and you feel like crying
Don't let this gray sky break you down
Put your uneasy hand in mine
I will hold it tight until mornings comes
Stay in my arms and if you ask me I won't go
So dry your tears silly
Drown your fears with me
Let the warmth of the sun fill your soul
Throw away all sadness
Just stay for a while
Even if its for just a second
Never lose sight that you are in my heart
Always
This one was about my friend Haley who was having a hard time with everything in her life. I remember spending every day off work with her and every weekend dropping by just to spend a few minutes. For the longest time she was my best friend and I hated seeing her that way. I wrote this because sometimes I'd see all she wanted was just a hug and someone to tell her she mattered. To me she did. Even if she's married and we don't talk anymore I'm glad she found what she was looking for. ^w^

"Wrote this a LONG time ago when a friend of mine was having a hard time. It's kind of juvenile and bland as poems go but it's something I've always tried to be."- April 17, 2012
