To You Who Cared Enough
With a click of a button as I open a page
Soft silent tears slowly engage
Not tears of frustration,
Nor of deception they are
But tears of pure joy
The sense of belonging
The warmth and encouragement
That so freely abounds
The care and concern
My heart it astounds
There once was a time
When I’d give as received
Then life took a turn
Silently I grieved
That joy that I’d felt
The happiness I’d known
The profound sense of being
But now alone
Togetherness I’d shared
Turned into sorrow
Raging heartache within
Would there be a tomorrow?
The journey’s been long
Though not quite over yet
And the weariness of spirit
One can’t fully forget
My thanks and my gratitude
In abundance is given
To you who cared enough
By you I was driven
I give to you each,
From my heart; a rose
And once again thank you
To you... much is owed.
