You Were There Poem by Ashleigh Gaffney

When no one was there for me
And I thought no one cared
When the whole world walked out on me
And I thought I was alone
You were there

When the one I cared about the most
Could care less about me
When the one I gave my heart to
Threw it back in my face
You were there

When the person I trusted
Betrayed me
When the person I shared a lot of memories with
Can’t even remember my birthday
You were there

When all I needed was a friend
To listen to me whine
When all I needed was someone
To catch my tears
You were there

When my heart hurt so badly
That I couldn’t even breathe
When I just wanted to crawl up and die
You were there

When I stared to cry
After hearing that sad song
When the tears just wouldn’t
Stop falling down
You were there

So you see I will be there until the end
This is a promise I can make
If you ever need me
Just give me a call
I will be there just as you were there for me
