Will you be there?
When in a frendzy, chattering, and excited state, will you see the loneliness in my heart, sadness in my smile, and how much I'll be craving your attention. Even when you're near me, Will you be there?
With celebrations in the air, on the eve of a new year, fireworks up in the sky, as their color light up brightly. But I'm sitting there and my thoughts are in despair
Will you comfort me with your words, assure me we'll get there, and protect me from my fears. Will you be there?
When I return home drenched by the rain, my feets and my lips and teeth shivering, Goosebumps all over my body.
Will you be my blanket, could you your arms make me feel at home in the woods?
Will you be there?
If I'm lost in the jungle of my thoughts, afraid that the beast might come for me tonight as I lay on my sick bed reminiscing on the "coulda, woulda, shoulda(s)" would you be able to read my fear from my eyes? Could you save me wit a kiss on my pale lips, would you hold my hands through this dark path? As you look at me with pity in your eyes, Will you even be there?
And when all my strength is gone, my buds no longer feel any taste, at a time when all I can count is the moments that never happened, will my kids have any friend in you to count on?
As all of our memories drown in sad tears, will you be there to live them for me?
Would you even care?
I ask again before I breathe my last, will you be there after all that is left of me is memories I was too scared to create.
