My Crying Shoulder

We don't talk
Often and
We're not
Best friends
But you were
A great comfort
To me at a very
Difficult time.

I can not
Express
How thankful
I am for
Someone
Such as you
In my life.

You didn't
Even need to
Ask to know
I needed you.
You were more
Than willing to be
My crying shoulder.

You freely gave
A calm repose
For my stormy
Mind.
I felt lost and
You gave me hope.
I felt abandoned
And you showed me
Love and kindness.

You listened and
Best of all
Held me when I
Cried.
Your consolation
Helped me more
Than you can know.
You were someone I
Could turn to.

Those kind
Gestures
Giving me
Just the
Strength I
Needed

There are no words
Good enough to
Explain this
New found
Love and
Respect I have
For you.
