When you deeply think
that you should stop,
that's when you enforce
staying on track.
Even when those
who assured support
jump off the ship,
and you're hit with their slack.
*
When your spirit feels
the pressure inside,
that's when you'll care
to fix any cracks.
Even when life
brings you some delays
in reaching your goals,
deterring your hacks.
*
I know how sometimes,
when panic arrives,
you'll reach out to me,
looking for a chat.
Don't you ever doubt:
call me any time.
I'm here for you.
And I got your back.

I just call...to say...'' I love you.'' And I mean it, from the bottom of my heart... :))
You made me stop again and again and think. A very deep poem that shows love for creation.
This one feels like a warm hand on the shoulder! It's that kind of quiet strength you want in your corner when the world feels shaky. Loved it! ✨
This was very relatable to me at this time in my life. Great work!
