PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

Today your pretty eyes look sad and dreary

A tragedy I'm getting lost inside

I've got to find a way to make you look at me

A little less like your spirit has died

You haven't smiled in a while and I'm worried

So I've decided not to go away

Even if you're feeling anti-social

I'm staying here till I know you're okay

I may not easily find the words to tell you

That everything is going to be alright

But if you want to talk, I'm here to listen

Any time you need me, day or night

Feel free to rest your head upon my shoulder

If you need to, go ahead and cry

If I could steal your pain away, I'd do it

Won't promise I can help, but I will try

If you need to yell out in frustration

Get angry, go on, you can yell at me

Sometimes its best to just release the pressure

And I want to free you from your misery

I know I don't have the power to protect you

From all the hurt that life is sure to bring

But I swear I'll be there to get you through it

Whatever it takes, I'll do anything

So fall into my arms if you need someone

To hold onto when it all becomes too much

And if you cannot walk through this alone

Lean on me, for I will gladly be your crutch

Today your pretty eyes look sad and dreary

But I'll have you looking at me with less sorrow

I'm going to make you smile if it kills me

If not today, I'll still be here tomorrow
