Just a Shoulder To Cry On

Shoulder to cry on
When your teardrops fall.
Someone you can depend on.
Issues you face tolls.
Your strife foreshown
Just a shoulder to cry on.

Blue clouds lingers low.
A frown you wear close.
Not to shake the wretchedness
Problems cannot fix.
A shoulder is here	
Freely given for your relief.

Issue you face tolls.
Your strife foreshown
Just a shoulder to cry on.
Blue clouds lingers low.
A frown you wear close.
In anguish, your sighs of woe…

Shoulder to cry on, 
Problems cannot fix
Freely given for your relief.
A shoulder is here,
When your teardrops fall.
Someone you can depend on.

Verlena, it's important to have a shoulder to cry on. One should never carry tears alone. ATM, I'm going through a hurtful ordeal. Thanks to all the shoulders around. I don't carry this alone... A wonderful blessing poem.. Thank you for guiding me this way. Just what I needed to read... Love Linda
