THE ONE WHO STAYS
<p>Never assume all is okay</p><p>Not every smile tells the truth</p><p>Don’t just glance and walk away</p><p>Don’t assume they’ve got it
</p><p>Because sometimes, they don’t.
</p><p>Sometimes, it’s falling apart faster
</p><p>Than their smile can hide it.
</p><p><br></p><p>Life, oh life…
</p><p>Full of twists, tricks,
</p><p>And thorn-covered truths.
</p><p>Happy today,
</p><p>Then tomorrow?
</p><p>The sun disappears.
</p><p>They try to trace it
</p><p>What went wrong?
</p><p>Where did the light go?
</p><p><br></p><p>It doesn’t stroll in</p><p>It storms in.
</p><p>Wrecking peace,
</p><p>Rattling calm.
</p><p>And just like that…
</p><p>Nothing feels the same.
</p><p>They don’t feel alive.
</p><p>They don’t feel life.
</p><p><br></p><p>And in that moment?
</p><p>They need a word.
</p><p>A touch.
</p><p>A hand.
</p><p>A "Hey... I see you."
</p><p>But the world?
</p><p>It’s loud with silence.
</p><p>Empty faces,
</p><p>Busy hearts,
</p><p>No shoulder to lean on.
</p><p>No soul that listens.
</p><p>They’re not okay...
</p><p>But the world believes they are.
</p><p><br></p><p>Still
</p><p>There is One.
</p><p>One who never walks away.
</p><p>Never checks out.
</p><p>
</p><p>Never forgets the ones the world overlooks.</p><p>Listens to prayers whispered through tears</p><p>The One who loves
</p><p>Wildly.
</p><p>Recklessly.
</p><p>Without reason but always with purpose.
</p><p>The One who gathers broken pieces,
</p><p>Sings peace over chaos,
</p><p>And scares fear into hiding.
</p><p><br></p><p>He… is Love.
</p><p>Not just a word,
</p><p>Not just a thought
</p><p>But a presence.
</p><p>A refuge.
</p><p>A flame that never dies.
