Stand-by


Stand-by
"Honey, I need this",
"Sweetie, can you get me that?",
 "Darling, could you please accompany me here?"
"Sugar, you are so wonderful"
Every minute, every second,
Honey this!
Darling, that!
Ooh, oh, so when do I get to be the 'friend',
I'm always standing in for someone,
I'm always a stand-by.
When the 'friend' hurts or betrays her,
That's when I become of some importance,
That's when I'm seen as a 'friend',
A 'friend' for a second.
Once the problem is solved,
Our friendship goes back as old,
And I go back to being the stand-by.
I'm always cleaning up another's mess,
Nursing the wounds inflicted by another.
I'm almost hurt
But thanks to God
For being the best friend I could ever have,
For giving me friends 
To erase all this hurt,
Friends to treat me as 'friend'.
I'll always be a comforter
To a soul that needs comfort
No matter how I'm treated.

My Plea to You

My Plea to You.  You made me smile  Yet my heart was with someone else. I hurt you  But you were still there for me. You showed me more  Care and concern than anyone else  But I still couldn't love you I kept asking myself, why?  Why you? Why couldn't I love the one guy Who's ready to go the extra mile for me?  Is there any problem with me? Is it that I'm blind to see? Or deaf to hear?  Or dead to feel?  I'm sorry I couldn't love you the way you wish I should. I'm sorry you couldn't call me Your own. It hurts me more  Than you can imagine  That I couldn't love you. I promise to be there for you Whenever you need me As long as God grants us life. This is from the deepest part of my heart to you. I love you- My dearest friend.  Dedicated to You.

First Christmas Together Apart

First Christmas Together Apart I remember the very moment we met, It’s a memory so priceless And can’t be shared with Simple words. I remember when you said The “words”, I laughed for no reason; They were not funny, But I just couldn’t help myself. I remember my reaction when You sat beside me for the first time, I discovered I had butterflies in my tummy. Our conservation was so freely flowing Like we had known each other from Adam. I wish the moments we shared never ended; The days were longer than 24 hours, There were no seas to put such A long distance between us. I dream of a season and time When our clothing is the only distance That stands between us. Ur journey has been lovely and beautiful With a few ugly bumps on the way. The Christmas season closes in so fast on us. I can’t wait for the day when We would shop for the perfect Christmas tree, And spend the whole nights decorating it. The night which would be filled with ...

The Healing Process

The Healing Process It has been easier than I thought It would be. The first days were just So emotional and tough. How unfair life could have been At such a crucial moment? My mind has decided to go blank On this issue. The people I thought hated me Actually had my well-being At heart. Never take anyone for a fool Sometimes a person decides To act naive and all innocent But this doesn’t make him A fool. I thought my situation was Sad and worse But yours is very pathetic. I am grieving with you. Appreciate everyone and anyone. Watch your every word and action. Those who care about you are getting Tired and fed up. Bear in mind! Hang in there. Don’t give up on yourself. I have got your back. Even if you give up on yourself We are here for you.
