long overdue

I sat down beside her
For I'd just seen her brown eyes water
So I asked what's the matter?
A shake of the head and a "Maybe later"
But I probed once more
After all, what are good friends for
She relented and told me of her problem
Indeed, even I found it a conundrum
I knew she wanted an answer
That no one could give her
Soon after, I walked her home
During which my mind did roam
More questions: What now? How? Where?
She can't be left to despair
At the door, we said goodbye
And I thought now's the time to try
"Take care till I see you tomorrow
I don't want you to be caught up in sorrow"
Thinking back, did I say the right thing?
It sounded awfully inadequate,
Like something's missing
I thought about it on my way back
Initially it seemed corny but what the heck
This is my gift, especially for you
I swear every word of it holds true
Honey, I'll help you if I'm able
There's a bottle of relief on my table
I can stay up to listen all night
Won't you let me?
It'll all be alright
I love you, girl. <3
Have I ever told you?
You make me happy when skies are grey. (:
Now that your day's cloudy,
I've come with an umbrella, handy.
