When Poem by REBECCA OMIDO

When

Rating: 4.0


When i smiled,
i wanted you to smile with me....
When i cried,
i wanted u to catch my tears, drop by drop.
When i excelled,
i wanted u to be there to pat my back
.When i was disillusioned,
i hoped u would encourage me.
When my heart was heavy with lots of cares and burdens of this world, i wished you would empathize with me.

When i fell, i hopped you would catch my hand.
when i needed that comforting hug,
Like a child who is afraid of the dark u just looked my way with no concern.
When i needed a listening ear u just shut me out.
when i wanted your advice so badly..
you just sat back and watched me waste away...

You were my hope, my mentor my everything...
But u left me to stand alone,
cry alone.
smile alone...

Sometimes i wish i could save myself but i was helpless...
and today i look up to God above and thank him for being my knight in shining Armour.

Its sad to look around for help from a specific person to help and not to get it. But life must roll on. Thanks for sharing. Please read my poem 'The Empress Of My Heart'

A nice poem. Some people we expect to help us don't really do that..
