Who?

Sometimes you forget how important somebody has been to you.

Who stood by you in

your moment of crisis? 

***

Who was there when the 

tears couldn’t stop flowing? 

***

Who was there with gifts? 

Who was there with flowers? 

***

Who was there with a shoulder

to cry on? 


***

You forget too times

who that person was. 

***

You forget the sacrifices

you forget the love he gave. 

***

Who, I say,

who was that man? 

***

Who stands by your side

and cheers you on? 

***

Who is there

when failure has you down? 

***

Who is that one

with hope in hand? 

***

Don’t forget, in your darkest days

he was the shining light

***

That picked you up.

when you fell.  

***

Who dusted you off

and made you good again. 

***

Don’t you remember? 

who is that “Who”? 

***

In case you forget

just look to your side.

***

That’s where that “who” is.

That’s where I am.
