Guardian (Right There)

hanging
around me

all
   day
        without

offering
even one,

single
         word
                of

hope, kind
nor care

angel
         why
              must

you stay
so mute...

or  is
   it

just  
      enough
                  knowing

you're right
    there

& 
  on
     guard
