My Pledge to You

My Pledge to You
By John A. Wilson

When you need someone to talk to,
I'll listen.
When you need a shoulder to cry on,
I'll hold you.
When you need a second opinion,
I'll give you mine.
When you need to be alone with your own thoughts,
I won't intrude.
When you feel like being playful,
I'll join you in your game.
When you need to vent some steam,
I'll be your pressure valve.
When you just need someone beside you,
I'll be there.
When the world is all against you,
I'll be on your side.
When the deck is stacked against you,
I'll back your bet.
No matter what your problem, situation or mood,
I'll be your friend.
