Tired and Low

Who will be there to help me for once?

I'll help you

And I don't mind

But who will help me

Give me their time?

 

You have my shoulder to lean on

No matter it be night or day

But who can I turn to

When nothing seems to be going my way?

 

The words you say will be heard

And what you need

But who will hear my own pain

If my strength decides to leave?

 

I'll be there to comfort and hold you

Hug you tight till the last tear

But who can I turn to

As my world is consumed with fear?

 

Tired and low

Why did this have to be so

 

I wish time would rewind

Or better yet

Get him off my mind

 

Even with a smile on my face

I know that deep inside

Tears fill the space

 

Who will help me?

Take care of me?

Be there for me?

 

Tired and low

I just don't know anymore

Author's Note

My voice needed to escape.. even though I am moving on slowly... there are times when I need to feel the warmth and love of a person who truly cares.

This piece is tremendous. Many questions left unanswered. I felt the pull of urgency and I
think all of us at one time or another had
pondered this question and the answer almost
always remains the same, I'm there for you are
you there for me and will I ever find you?

I know the feeling. Besides that, you did good job. It is lovely poem.

As for the philosophy, it goes like this: you help someone, somebody else helps you. It's never the same person. So we all get connected. Try observing from that perspective and see what happens. Lol!

Know how you feel. Written a similar poem. I know it feels like there's no one but there's always someone. You just have to look closer.

Beautiful poem
