Who, What, Where, Why and When
Who do you run to, when the pain gets hard to bear?
What do you cling to, if no one seems to care?
Where do you go, if life gets too much?
Why is it painful, to find a soft and gentle touch?
When do you let go, if you’re hurting inside?
Who do you talk to, if you can no longer hide.
What do you do, if you’re feeling alone?
Where do you disappear to, when you’re on your own?
Why do you shy away, when you’re in a crowd?
When do you let your anger go, if you need to scream out loud?
Who do you shout at, when you need a release?
What do you find, when you discover peace?
Where are you going, is it a place you like to be?
Why do you hide, your emotions from me?
When will you notice, the whole world isn’t cold?
Who do you turn to, when you need a hand to hold?
What pain have you been through, that cut through you like a knife?
Where are you going, on your pathway through life?
Why do you push me away, if you need me near?
When will you realise, I’ll always be right here?
