~WHEN YOU HURT~
When you hurt...
It matters
The sun doesn't feel as warm.
The moon loses its luster.
The stars lack their usual radiance...
And seconds, seem like an eternity.
When you hurt...
It matters
Nothing sounds sweet.
Little ballerinas on music boxes don't
Twirl so daintilily,
And funny movies, cause tears to emerge.
When you hurt...
It matters
Imagination and curiosity retreat.
No bell rings when an angel receives their wings,
And fairy tales, have no "happily ever after".
When you hurt...
It matters
It doesn't help to hear that "I hurt, too."
Because the possibility of another in so much pain...
Seems impossible.
When you hurt...
It matters
So much that,
I'm not going away.
Even if you tell me to...
Even if you shut the door...
Even if "silence" is all you can offer.
Even if my outstretched hand is too scary
For you to reach for.
When you hurt...
It matters,
And I will be there.
Because you did the same for me...and...
IT MATTERED.

This poem is dedicated to all my dear friends at SASYFRAS and
all who suffer from CFIDS, FMS and other painful, disabling "silent" illnesses.
In you all I have found love, caring, wisdom, strength and a second family.
