Everybody Wants Someone… Poem by susan brealey

Everybody wants someone to hold at night.
To hold when they are scared,
When they feel alone and unloved.

Everybody wants someone to protect them.
From the bullies at school,
From the abusive parent at home,
From the hurt filled world.

Everybody wants someone to help them.
Through the pain caused by the hurtful words,
Through the hard times,
Through the fear and hate.

Everybody wants someone to cuddle up with.
Even when life has treat them bad in the past,
Even when their seem to hope in the world,
Even when they know it could go wrong and they may get hurt again.

Everybody wants someone to share with.
To share the secret kept for years,
To share worries with,
To share their life stories with.

Everybody wants someone to see through the mask,
To see the tears they hold back,
To see the pain they keep secret.
To see the broken angel waiting, to be healed.

Everybody wants someone like you.
My Angel,
My Guardian Angel.
