Rebecca Larkin Poet Rhyme

I Am Here, Where Are You

I have always been there
When you needed me
Why are you not here
When I need you now
I always provided my shoulder for you
To lean or cry on
But you never have nor do
And I’ll always be around
That will never change
But when I need someone-you, I’m staring at the ground
Whenever I need a shoulder to lean on
You are never around to comfort me
You’re always gone
And so I sit and cry alone
Wondering why
I’m always on my own

Laura Breidenthal August 7, 2013 at 6:21 PM I think some people are afraid that they may add to the pain in some way. Sometimes I get that way. But it's important to overcome that and at least be there for someone. Not as easy as one would think in that situation. Anyway, good poem. Always, Laura
