Need To Be Needed Poem by Megan Frame

Not knowing what to do or say,
To help to guide you on your way.
Wanting so much to help you,
But you wont let me, no matter what i do.

I'm in the dark,
and hurt by every remark.
On you I've leaned for so long,
You have always been so strong.

Now I'm standing on my own,
Standing against all the winds that have blown
I need to be needed,
Now the winds have conceded.

I want you to lean on me,
Lean on me and you'll see
You don't have to be so strong,
You have me when things go wrong.

Come and lean on me,
A better friend you couldn't be,
Let me take your load,
With it I won't be slowed,
But My burden will be light,
As we find our way by starlight.
