A few years ago, and on another forum, I was in a very dark place, and Leonie posted this for me.

I still feel moved when reading it now, and thought I would share it.

"You" by Peter Finlayson.

When you are sad,
and feel you can't go on.
Tears well in your eyes
and the pain is so strong.

So far from your friends,
and you're all on your own.
No-one to run to,
So very alone.

When all seems so useless,
and you can't take any more.
As you put on your coat and head for the door.

Remember..................

I was there once,
lost, all alone.
You can cry in my ear,
Just pick up the phone.

When you are lonely, and feeling so blue
Someone is thinking, ...thinking of you.

That is so true Lloyd, but when in the depths of despair you often don't realise, so its good to have it written down. I am going to share this with T, I think she will appreciate it as well! Very Happy

It's a lovely poem Lloyd and a reminder that we're never truly alone.
