Come To Me Poem by Maya Reid

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
