Would You Be the One

A poem about presence and kindness — about being the one who truly stays
for another, in a world that so often rushes past emotions.
How often do you ask:
"Are you okay?"
And have you ever wondered
what you would do
if, one day,
they answered —
with an unfamiliar
no?
Would you be
the embrace
they haven't felt
in far too long?
Would you be
the quiet listener
when they finally
find their voice?
Would you be
the smile
they lost
somewhere along the way?
Would you be
the tenderness
they've been searching for
without even knowing it?
Would you be —
even just
for a single moment —
truly present,
in a world
too busy to feel?
You could be.
And do you know why?
Because you are love.
