You be the anchor that keeps my feet on the ground, I'll be the wings that keep your heart in the clouds <3


My Dear Friend,

Don't tell me you're not injured,
Don't tell me you're not scarred,
I can see the way you hide behind
Your smile, it's your gaurd.

Don't tell me you're not scared,
Don't tell me you're not broken,
The pain's so clear within your eyes
Despite the words unspoken.

It's a burden you must carry
On your back throughout the day,
I know you wish for bluer skies,
Not washed-out shades of gray.

So let me help you bear it,
Silent sorrow breaks my heart,
Take my hand, I'll give you strength
To help you finish all you'll start.




All My Love,

Always and forever,



A friend


The author's comments:
A good friend of mine moves through a difficult life every day, but he never asks anything of anyone. I wrote this for him. He loves my poetry, so I knew he'd read it. Then he asked for my help.
