Embrace - Visitor's Poem

by Julisa Fernandez
(Little Rock, AR, USA)

Tonight, I saw you in so much pain;
remember there is no one to blame,
I saw you helpless and confused;
you did not know what to do,
I tried to comfort you tonight;
I wanted to be there for you,
Embrace you and tell you it'll be alright,
I know you could not be a lone tonight,
I wanted to caress your face and
kiss your sweet lips, as we embraced,
I want you to know, you're not alone,
even though I could not be there for you tonight
