Promise

                                                                                 by Jessica Sills

As you sit in silence,

wondering why

I'll be your shoulder to cry on

Until your tears run dry.

 

When you've been hurt,

And can't believe what they're done

If you need someone to talk to

I'll be the one .

 

If a close friend hurts you,

And you don't understand

Remember I'm here,

I'll lend a helping hand.

 

Burdens are lighter

When carried by two,

And I just want you to know

I'm here for you.
