Stronger

Why do we think that no one can hear? They keep their distance when we need them near Friends don't call in or ring on the phone That's when you find yourself really alone We discover true friendship when the chips are down You'll be surprised when you realise just who sticks around Sometimes it's the people that you least expect Now their the ones you'll never neglect We all learn to be restful when times on our side These are the friends to talk to when we want to hide In a while we will discover, we are stronger in body and mind And that inner voice is there being gentle and kind When we feel they are distant and not always clear Is when we become strong, not bending an ear Positive thoughts, like what's good in your life Like a cat or dog, friends, a hubby or wife Maybe it's a car or a pot plant full of colour Think about the good things and sing to yourself lalala We know that it's scary and we never want to be alone But your life is the one that you have to own Remember it's not up to others to rebuild your life By all means ask for help if you are in some strife Before you know it, stronger and stronger you'll be You might end up a writer or poet just like me Then why do we think that no one can hear? Cause you are stronger and don't need them so near
