To be there

Written for a friend dealing with a break up

Sometimes we need someone to listen/other times we need to vent/people heal in different ways/I was thinking we had to talk to heal/but that’s not true/just being together helps/a sleep over with your best friend/a walk to the spooky eyes on the hill/

I don’t like change/neither does she/but sometimes our lives change for the better/but it’s hard to see after awhile/when the music fades/the lights go out/when the fire doesn’t spark the way it used to/when the things you thought were constant aren’t/

Thinking of my future/trying to let go of the past/there are things we can take forward/and some things are better left behind/if love was static wouldn’t it be boring/but it contains so many highs and lows that makes me want to fall in love all over/

To be there the day after/to hear raw emotions/wondering if being there was really helpful/but taking a walk/talking through the hurt/that was taking shape/the miles didn’t matter/because the best I could do is to be there/if it’s lending an ear/or a place to sit/or something to take your mind to new heights/
