Alone
Alone?
I cried out but no one heard me
I needed help but couldn’t ask
I felt alone but wasn’t really
I was here but wasn’t seen
I reached out but no one noticed
I pulled away and no one cared
I needed someone to take the time
To ask me if I would be ok
Then a voice softly whispered
You weren’t alone I was always there
I was there when you needed someone
I was there and heard you cry
I was there through all your darkness
I took your hand and calmed your fears
I was there when you needed hope
I walked with you and lifted you up
Take my hand and I will guide you
Out of your darkness
Into the light
