NaPoWriMo 2015 Day 2

I have a friend who's going through a tough time and I gave him the best gift I have tonight - a few hours of my time.  Even though I was tired, I listened and we shared some childhood memories. Then we laughed for a while and even cried.  We can't  fix everything, but sometimes we can just be there.

The pain is deep and now you're stuck

You think that you've run out of luck

It hurts you now the pain is bad

And every day seems really sad

You think that time will help you heal

But for a time you just can't feel

I'll listen now while you vent 

And know that this was time well spent
