You Are There

When I cry in desperation
     You are there to feel my tears
When I’m overcome with panic
     You are there to calm my fears

When I struggle just to focus
     You are there to clear my mind
When I teeter near the edge
     You draw me back to humankind

When jealousy does overwhelm me
     Your rebuke is patient, caring
When I lash you with my anger
     You act as though my love’s not wearing

When I hear the darkness call me
     You distract me with your writing
When the walls close in around me
     You ask my help, always inviting

Though the distance separates us
     I feel your presence strong, enduring
Etched on my heart the words you write me
     Give me peace, are reassuring

Thank you friend for just existing
     Reaching out, always persisting
Making life worth living most days
     Thank you friend for being always

That's what friends are for.

Everyone should have a person such as this in their lives. It truly is a rare treasure. A wonderful piece about loyalty, support and acceptance.
