If my shoulder isn’t soft enough, <br />Let’s place a pillow there. <br />So I can hold you in my arms, <br />And gently stroke your hair. <br /> <br />When weak, saddened, or feeling spent, <br />So much so that you have to vent, <br />Then bounce off me your every care. <br />For whatever you need, I will be there. <br /> <br />I have a zillion things to say, <br />But I’ll shut my mouth and listen today. <br />You have my attention, I swear it’s true! <br />That’s one way I show my love for you. <br /> <br />Now in this life that I have lived, <br />My favorite thing to do, <br />Is holding, loving, and kissing, <br />While I’m being there for You!<br /><br />Robert Edgar Burns<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/being-there-12/
