Whenever you cried
I stopped to listen
Computing a solution inside.
Whenever you called
I answered in a hurry
Seeking to reassure you
Hoping to relieve your worry.
Whenever you needed help
Situations beyond your control
I was the one who gave of myself.
There’s nothing grand about me
A normal person who feels
Only that I love you endlessly.
Even in the loving you
I have somehow lost you
Along the way something else grabbed you
And it’s got me speechless!
One that’s bigger than me
Much more stronger than me
I have a hard time believing
That it has you begging
On your hands and knees
Sad part is, you don’t even see it.
And, it’s got me speechless!
