    Come to Me

    Come to me
    When you think your heart is broken
    That you were really “in love” with them
    And that you can’t go on without them
    That they hurt you so bad
    That you’ll never love another
    And I will be your teacher
    Show your aching heart that it still works
    And that it can beat again

    Come to me
    When you’re running
    From the shadows of your past
    And I will arm you
    With friendship, so that you are not alone
    And arm in arm, we will face him
    Discuss, dissect, and embrace him
    We will realize that our pasts are a part of us
    And are as real as who we are today

    Come to me
    When you’re lost in the darkness
    When your world becomes so pitch black
    That you can’t see your hands in front of your face
    And when you are so confused
    That you can’t tell up from down
    And I will be your Apollo
    In my chariot, I will be your light knight
    I will drive away the darkness
    And make the sun shine again

    Come to me
    When your world is caving in
    When you think you’re going crazy
    When the universe is deliberately
    Working against you
    And I will be your glue
    I will hold the fragile pieces
    Of the glass sphere that is your world
    Together
    And tell you of the countless times
    I have felt the very same way

    Come to me
    When sorrow reigns
    When tears flood your pillow
    And you just break down
    And I will give to you
    A hardhat and a pair of gloves
    And together, brick by brick
    We will build you up again
    And this time you will be stronger
    More complete
    Because you will have been built up carefully
    Made sturdy with the cement of love

    Come to me
    Whenever you feel
    Like no one understands your pain
    No one feels the things you feel
    No one sees what your eyes see
    No one’s been as far gone as you are now
    And I will be your no one
    Because I have
    Been there, done, seen, felt that
    And for you
    Your no one is willing to go back there again
    If only you will

    Come to me.

    Poetry is either something that lives like fire inside you or else it is nothing, an empty formalized bore around which pedants can endlessly drone their notes and explanations.
