-------Free Verse of thoughts never-ending---------

Thank you. Thank you.

I sat there listening.

Help me. Help me.

I look at you breathing.

What do you want from me?

What is it you see in me?

I'm helpless from your point of view,

Yet here you are needing me.

I run and run.

Never have I stopped since then.

Think it through. Think of you.

Everything streams by and blends.

My eyes rain a sky of blue.

What do you want from me?

What is it you see in me?

I'm helpless in this situation,

Yet here you are loving me.

Just hold me, love. And never let go.

You'll never understand how much,

All your support has lifted me up.

You'll never understand how much,

How much of you I don't deserve.

Spinning and spinning.

Your hand in mine.

I listen to you hum.

And look at you with fresh eyes.

Thank you. Thank you.

For holding onto me,

and being my friend.

--A poem about being there when a friend is in need.
