Where Were You? Poem by Anjali Bhola

Where were you when I needed you?
Where were you when you said I'd always have your shoulder to rest my head on?
Where were you when you said that you'd wipe the tears that fall?

Where were you when I felt nothing?
Where were you at 3 in the morning when I was lying on my bed,
Tear stained cheek, begging God to make this pain go away?
Where were you when I needed answers for your actions?

Where were you when I was physically and mentally weak?
Where were you when I needed the reassurance?
Where were you when I needed you?
Where were you?
