Sometimes, when shadows cloud our day, We don’t need words to light the way. No questions asked, no answers sought, Just quiet company, deeply thought.
A presence near, no need to speak, No solutions offered, no wisdom to seek. For feelings twist and turn and ache, And understanding sometimes takes its break.
The burden is ours, too heavy to share, Yet their silent warmth shows they care. They sit, they stay, without demand, Their quiet strength, a steady hand.
No “You’re not alone” needs to be said, The comfort’s in their stillness instead. For in that moment, with them near, The weight feels lighter, the world less severe.
Sometimes, a breath, a touch, a glance, Is all it takes to shift the stance. Not alone—that truth’s enough, To remind us we’re held, even when life’s tough.
