In the Silence:

When you needed someone to listen

I was there.

When you needed comfort

I was there.

When you felt the world was against you

I was there

When you needed to be reminded of all your good

I was there.

When you felt you had no friends

I was there.

When you felt all alone and things to quiet

I was there.

When you wanted to share ideas

I was there.

When you needed advice or opinions

I was there.

When you needed my time what little I had

I was there.

When you needed to cry

I was there.

When you needed that security

I was there.

When you needed a hug.

I was there.

When I needed someone to listen

You were not there.

When I needed comfort

You were not there.

When I felt the world was against me

You were not there.

When I needed to be reminded of all my good

You were not there.

When I felt I had no friends

You were not there.

When I felt alone and things to quiet

You were not there.

When I wanted to share an idea

You were not there.

When I needed advice or opinions

You were not there.

When I needed your time what little you had

You were not there.

When I needed to cry

You were not there.

When I needed that security

You were not there.

When I needed a hug

You were not there.

We were only close when you needed something emotionally from me. Thank you for the gift of silence. It was in that silence,

I heard everything.
