You stand like a rock <br />or a tall oak tree <br />just behind me <br />To catch me if I fall <br />or need someone to lean on <br />when the darkness calls <br /> <br />You have been my help <br />in times of need <br />A wonderful feeling <br />it will always be <br />When darkness calls <br />you stand by me <br /> <br />Your roots run deep <br />and on your strength I rely <br />You quiet me so I can sleep <br />Harbored within these walls <br />the need of someone <br />when the darkness calls<br /><br />JoJo Bean, Dodgy Dave and Meggie Gultiano<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/when-the-darkness-calls/
