At the end of the day when all is still <br />I've earned my pay, like I always will <br />My job is done, no more wells to fill.................. <br />But who will be there for me? <br /> <br />I have chosen a path that is long and hard <br />My mind is spent, and my soul is scarred <br />I've learned that I never let down my guard.................. <br />But there's nobody there for me; <br /> <br />It's a difficult task but I do my best <br />To comfort those who are weak and stressed <br />The nightmares come and I find no rest................... <br />Is there nobody there for me? <br /> <br />Perhaps there's a place where the soul finds peace <br />At the end of this road when the trials all cease <br />And the spirit soars high with a sweet release.............. <br />I'll be free if you're there for me. <br /> <br /> <br />2/26/2008<br /><br />Linda Ori<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/who-will-be-there-for-me/
