Never Alone

Never alone Sadness invades every corner left open Ears falling deaf to the thoughts that do scream Heartbeats are breaking in moments of worry Tears on the edge of a fracturing dream Anguish now splintered as window panes shatter Closing the curtains to fend off the fear Still there is one, if you need to hold on too Look in your heart and you’ll find I am near Taking your hand, bringing light to the darkness Trudging a path so your feet do not bleed Lifting you up when your spirits are drowning I will be there in your moment of need I am not much just a man who adores you Taking your pain as if it’s all my own Heeding your call nothing else it does matter Forever your friend, you are never alone

This made me feel better as I have been going through some tough times (all evident in my recent poems). This made me smile and realize I am not alone I just have to look for a shoulder to lean on. Thanks for sharing.

That happens too Daniel. I am in the same boat for the most part. But I am the one who moved 1800 miles away, so I guess it is my fault. :)
