Would take too many years.
I just know you’re always there for me
Through happiness and tears.
The comfort of your touch
Or a kiss on the cheek
When my spirit might be weak.
The strength of your shoulder
To rest my weary head;
The ultimate safe haven
When all is done and said.
Showing that you love someone
Throughout the passing days
Is sometimes best accomplished
In the simplest of ways.
--Vanessa Sgroi 1996
