Where are you?

What are you doing?

When I need just a shoulder to lean on

Tears rolling

Can't stop shaking

For a shoulder to lean on

Head starts to hurt

Room starts to spin

For your shoulder to lean on

I think of days that I laid there holding you

You holding me

Head on shoulder fast asleep

There you are looking down on me

While I still cry

Your shoulder wet but made to hold more

I still lie for you

I still die for you

On your shoulder I cry for you

But do you hear

But do you feel

Like just a shoulder to cry on
Love,

Ladycat

Live in my world just once and you'll find yourself enraptured.

Dear Ladycat, nice to read your work, very nicely done indeed.

Your words sound as if you need more love than a shoulder to lean on, at times too much weight can be put upon a shoulder, with it responsabilities, some can carry the weight, others not, tears fall, but as a storm comes, a day of bright and new often follows, filled with new hope and beginnings; seek your shoulder, but look further down to the hand below to hold and share.

Enjoyed the read, till next time.

Sincerely
Rick
