Don't lose someone
Under the influence of others
The ones who hug us tight
Are pearls in the ocean.
The ones who love us
Never leave
Standing silently by our side
As we navigate the torrids of life.
A calmness to the heart they bring
As we learn to trust our instincts
They cheer us on
While shielding from the sun.
Even though contemporary their ways
They do not let us in anyway sway
Under doubts to wallow
Never be a bother.
Into the chimes of laughter sublime
They drag us from the shadows pine
Remind us the best of what we are
We are blessed to be their lives' part.
