To a good friend in hope that they will listen. <br /> <br />Sometimes we neglect to say things <br />to the people who really care. <br />We do it because we want to protect them, <br />which is not what they want us to do. <br />Whenever you are hurting <br />you should tell the ones who care, <br />because they want to be there <br />especially for you. <br />You think that not by telling them <br />that everything will be OK. <br />In truth, it hurt them more <br />when they find out you <br />were only trying to save their feelings. <br />They would have rather that you told them <br />so they could reach out <br />to give you the comfort that you need. <br /> <br /> <br />13 November 2007<br /><br />David Harris<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/comfort-that-you-need/
