What do you think of when you see

your best friend acting the way they shouldn't be?

Angry?

Anxious?

Worried?

What would you do

If there's something you

Really must do?

Whatever it is that they are doing

You have to go tell them there are

People that worry about them

And that help will always be there,

With their arms wide open,

Ready to take them in whenever

I've seen so many people simply just crumpling at the challenges that they face and not knowing that people do care about them. I just hope that this helps, if only a little bit.
