Don't worry. <br />I wont be the one to let you down. <br /> <br />'But... <br />How do I know this? ' <br /> <br />I've taken more from you than anyone else. <br />And even in my illnesses, <br />Who has been there for you... <br />To dismiss my own suffering? <br /> <br />'You've been sick? <br />I didn't realize it.' <br /> <br />I know. <br /> <br />'Why didn't you tell me? ' <br /> <br />What's the point of both of us being weak? <br />I needed you to believe, <br />You are the one much stronger.<br /><br />Lawrence S.
