I Want To Be There Poem by Rosemary Monahan

I want to be there to...
...lend you my shoulder
...listen to your every word
...ease your troubled mind
...have you be yourself again
...make heartache a distant memory
...bring laughter to your face
...put loneliness in its place
...dry your tears
...help overcome your fears
...soothe your pains away
...take all the bad and make good
I want to be there for...
...all your needs, wants and desires
...all your hopes, wishes, dreams
I want to be there for you.
Let me.

(1999)
