Why do we stand

Sometimes we need a guide in this dark world

We stand for those who can't stand on their own,

Our kindness has brought with us a power no one has known,

With this power, we shall shelter them from the rain,

We shall protect them from the forces of the pain,

We shall be their light to lead their way,

They will never get lost as long as we have a say,

Keep them on the right track,

And give them the courage that they may lack,

Stay safe and be strong,

With someone by your side, you will never be in the wrong.

This is such a wonderful poem of hope. There is so much love, truth and fraternal understanding in it. This is a compassionate reminder of the need for care towards ourselves and others.

Loved the sentiment, Emily, unfortunately, there are more fucked and broken souls, than there are compassionate ones, how do you fight the tide,

Emily this is a beautiful poem. So loving, giving and unselfishness. To love, care, compassion, help aid and befriend others. In good times and bad. Wise words.
