"I'm proud of you, kid. When things got tense, when people got mad at each other, if someone was sad; if at any time someone was unhappy, you fixed it. You were the one that kept everyone happy."
I almost cried
When he said this to me
I didn't know
That I was doing it
I was the one
To wipe the tears
To lighten the mood
To look at the positives
Huh.
I truly wonder how it is
That I can keep everyone happy
Except myself
p.e.j.
