I Can'T Be the One

When rivers flowed down my wet eyes,
And my pillow was drenched in tears,
You were the one who heard my cries,
And helped me to chase off my fears.
I heard their sermon, of the Sears,
Even after a million tries,
I won't bring you all of the cheers,
Because that is where my fate lies.

Poetry can be a great solace and keep us strong in times like this and keep out that which can too easily bring us to grief. Glad you have stayed true to your original self when constructing your poetry. Regards David in NZ
