I'm here for you

I immediately got sucked into his world
and found an open world
a world with purple sky and lightning flashing every few seconds over a dark, cloudy ground

The world stretched out for miles 
I could see a circle of airy figures surrounding one person 
In the circle I saw the people he loved and disappointed and lost

I saw him with his knees to the floor bent down, crying into his palm
I saw that he was scared
scared to carry on with life 
Because the mistakes he made haunted him, mistakes he could not uncorrect himself 

I’m sorry I let you all down. I’m sorry I’m sorry

I walked over to him, took my hands with his and we stood as I gazed at him as his sobbing face stared at the ground 

I said

Hey

Don’t cry because it's over

Smile because it happened

Because we’re not perfect and we make mistakes.

We eventually have to move on and forget


But never ever forget that

I’m always here for you.

He looked up from the ground and looked at me, with a smile 

Instantly, the thunder and lightning is washed away by light drizzle, the dark night fades to a cloudy morning, the figures evaporate into thin air
it transforms into a world with an easy on the eyes blue sky 
the soft white pond-like clouds as the ground
surrounding the two of us

I wipe away your tears with kisses

kissing your nose, kissing your cheeks, kissing your lips

I put my arms under your back as you wrap your arms around mine 

You say as we close our eyes,

I’m always here for you too.
