Sadness

There's sadness in your eyes,

What happened to your smile?

You seem so all alone!

Come, talk to me awhile!

Come, tell me what is wrong!

What made you feel so sad?

No matter what you say...

It couldn't be that bad!

I promise, I won't judge!

...But listen to each word!

I'll hold it in my heart...

Tell no one what I heard!

Just please give me a chance

To be the friend you need!

I'll do all that I can...

Go ahead and lean on me!
