A Place For Your Head

Sometimes in life, tragedy strikes. It may be unforeseen and sudden, or it may be expected, yet still too sudden and all the more painful. In such circumstances, it’s often for the sake of our near and dear ones that we feel that we have to be strong, when we see our near and dear ones break down and we feel that we shouldn’t, not in front of them, we feel that we have to be a sort of a rock for them, some solid stable land to stand on.

But no matter how much you want to, holding things within yourself, to control all your emotions for the sake of others is not good unless you have a place for yourself, someone or even someplace where you can sit and let out your emotions, as for many of us, crying alone, with no one to hold on to, no one to talk to, is not the best thing, being alone sometimes only makes it worse.

So to all my close friends out there, the people nearest and dearest to me, you know who you are, and I just want you to know, I’m there for you.

Whenever you need a friend to talk to, to take your mind off things or to listen to what you have to say, to talk to you about stuff, I’m your man. Also, I know I often act like an idiot, I say and do stupid things, but then, just remember this, I may be a moron at times, but I’m your moron. Whenever I’m free, or whenever I can possibly get time out, I’ll be your friendly, neighbourhood, or rather cross-country confidant.

When the world is getting too heavy, rest your head near mine, tell me what’s on your mind, let me help if I can, and let me try even if I can’t. I may not always say the right things, or be able to deal with things the right way, be it because of whatever reason, but I always have and always will care.

The only sad part in all this is that I can’t be the vent for my parents, no matter how much I want, for these things move only one way, from kids to parents, and when parents are in need, they move into the comforting arms of their parents, so I know, even if my mom wants to, she won’t confide her deepest problems in me, but I can be that person for you, my friends, my sister and my love, for each one of you, I’m there and will be there for as long as I’m alive… a safe haven, a place for you to rest your head.
