you say your worried
about me
you don't want
to add to my stress
by putting your problems
on top of mine
but I don't
see it that way
I see it as
you unloading
the things
you can't carry
onto me
someone
that can
carry them
yes I may worry
and yes I am sad
but handle it not?
how could
you think that
of me
I can deal
I have to
Right...?
I am OK
I have always been
and always will
forever be
you should feel free
to tell me
of your many miseries
I will handle
them with care
just as I would
my very own
I will
either deal
or make them
go away
never to bother
you again
or me
my dear
yes I may
look tired
depressed
or even in
silent despair
these I may
likely be
but OK is me
and what I'll always be
