A Promise To You
When you’re weary of the world’s turmoil
and need a safe haven to rest
you can step into the warmth of my caring
and find sanctuary in me.
When confusion lines the path you walk
And causes you to question and doubt who you are,
you can find security in the depth of my understanding
and my vision of who you are and what good lies within you.
When you feel the world plots against you
I will always be there to show you the joy you can find.
When you feel no one is on your side
I’ll be there with my hand reaching out to you.
When we both are angry
I’ll always be ready to move ahead and let it go.
When it seems no one considers you
I’ll always try to let you know that I do.
And when it seems you fail to consider me,
I’ll try to remember that we
see things from different viewpoints,
and mine may not be the clearest vision.
When our needs and wants don’t correspond,
I’ll seek the compromise and not allow mine to overshadow yours.
When you need the space to find yourself again
I will try to step away and be here only from a distance.
When you’re ready to embrace the warmth
that two people who genuinely like each other bring,
I will be standing close by with arms that
offer a lover’s gentle embrace.
And when you think that there’s no security left
in this world, I’ll show you that it can be found
in two like hearts and spirits.
In friendship that glows with more.
When the heart sings and the spirit soars,
the music of life is complete.
I promise to always help you hear the music
and never miss the song.
