Not Alone

by Jessica Driver
(United States)

At one point in everyone's
life, they realize there is one
person always there.
The one person who makes
you feel your dreams can
come true.
They make you smile
when you're sad, and when
you can't explain, they
always understand.
They give you hope to get
through today and help
you believe better times
will come someday.
When you feel like you've
lost your way, they seem to
know the perfect words
to say. You can tell them
what's deep within your heart
and know your secret's safe.
You express your deepest
feelings when you get hurt,
knowing someone cares.
Even if it's only one person,
at least you know they are
always there.
You, are that one who makes
me believe in a brighter future,
and without you
there are things I don’t
think I would have made
it through
