May I

WHY ASK  WHY?????
WHEN YOU KNOW FOR SURE,
THAT I'VE GOT YOU, AND SO MUCH MORE.

TO OFFER,
THOUGHTS,
STRENGTH, COURAGE, DIGNITY, AND PRIDE.

SIMPLY A SHOULDER,
WHENEVER YOU CRY.

ARMS,
WORN BUT NOT WEARY,
BROAD, YET SOFT,
ENDEARING,
COMFORTING.

WHY??????

SIMPLY BECAUSE THAT'S WHO I AM.

SO WHEN YOU FEEL STRESSED,
A LITTLE UNSURE,
HERE'S YOUR ANECDOTE,
THE ULITIMATE CURE.

AS I RUB SURE SHOULDERS,
SOOTHING IT WILL BE,
WHISPERING,

SIMPLY

MAY I????,

PLEASE.
