Words to hold the lonely, to embrace
the mourners and their memories;

Comfort for love unrequited; heartening
For a heart cracked, collapsed or broken;

For the days when you’re sick, wallowing
In mountains of tissues, guilt-free self-pity;

Depth for the shallow yearning to be deep,
Camaraderie for company loved by misery;

For the days when you are filled with joy
And want to share it with the world,

An escape, a diversion or submersion,
Appreciation of nature’s glory and tragedy;

Words for the brave and for those who
Need a little help finding their capes;

An outlet for those cupid’s arrow struck
And space to celebrate every kind of love;

For the times when you are helpless
And you would give anything to help,

For the nights when you can't sleep
Because the silence is too loud;

For any feeling, any time, for everything,
no matter how common or obscure

You never need to feel alone, someone has
been there before and left you a poem
