 problems, doubts, or fears. But I can listen to you and together we will search for answers. I can't change your past with all its heartache and pain, Nor the future with its untold stories. But I can be there, when you need me. I can't keep your feet from stumbling, I can only offer my hand that you may grasp and not fall. Your joys, triumphs, success and happiness are not mine, Yet, I can share in your laughter. Your decisions in life are not mine to make, nor to judge, I can only support you, encourage you and help you, when you ask. I can't prevent you from falling away from friendship, from your values, from me, I can only pray for you, talk to you, and wait for you. I can't give you boundaries, which I've determined for you, But I can give you the room to change, room to grow and room to be yourself. I can't keep your heart from breaking and hurting, But I can cry with you and help you pick up the pieces and put them back in place. I can't tell you who you are, I can only love you and be your friend. |
