I Wanted To Be The Guy Poem by Bradley Lester

I wanted to be the guy
That she would call at night
When things were going wrong
And things weren't going right

I wanted to be the guy
Who'd keep her safe from harm
To keep the cold away
And break the storm the calm

I wanted to be the guy
She'd confide and share with me
Her deepest thoughts and fears
I'd set them for her free

I wanted to be the guy
Who'd walk the park with her
I'd gently take her hand
Assuring her I'm near
