Are you okay?
Cause it feels like you want to fade away.
Is everything alright?
Looks like you cried yourself out last night.
Your smile feels softer, like it's forced in place,
Your laughter dimmed, like it’s lost its grace.
You nod, but your eyes look far from here,
Like you're holding back every unshed tear.
So I won’t push, but I’ll stay near
Just in case you need someone to hear

A most comforting poem from one that seems to see beyond the words to subtle cues and offer a type of maternal reassurance of being there for any need. Lovely and a fave
A lovely and comforting write letting someone know they care and are there if they need them, nicely expressed and written
Love it
Thanks
You're welcome
You may have to change that pseudonym
Nothing empty about the heart that wrote this
Didn't know I had to hear it but I did
