Notes About The Poem

Always, Sometimes, Never

you know you'll always have a friend in me
when doubts enslave, I'll come to set you free
when love deludes and hard times do assail
My love's a promise that will never fail

when days are sometimes hard to bring to end
there is no hope, no rainbow round the bend
sometimes you might forget where truth is found
in times like these, be sure our hearts are bound

You'll never be alone, forlorn, or torn
this love I have each morn will be reborn
for demons loud may roar, but never fear
I'm always by your side, I'm always near....

I have to tell you this poem was a blanket, warming me, when a poet can stir such emotions, need I say more?
