Everybody has had somebody <br />Past or present, as you will. <br />Lives are shaped by those we meet <br />Day by day. <br />Shadows from the darkest moments <br />Live in every heart; <br />Lonely people have known people <br />Along the way. <br />Everybody wants somebody <br />To stand beside them strong and true. <br />Everybody needs somebody- <br />I as well as you. <br />I guess you never realized <br />Before it was too late <br />That, for me, that somebody <br />Could have been you. <br /> <br />The illustration in the book is of a table set for two <br />with a candle that had burned down to the nub?<br /><br />Adeline Foster<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/everybody-has-had-somebody/
