    When
    country says (07 Jul '08)

    When life was so cruel,
    "You were there"
    When I could not find my way,
    "You were there"
    When I needed a friend,
    "You were there"
    When I was lost and confused,
    "You were there"
    When my heart was breaking ,
    "You were there"
    When you took your own life,
    I stood alone for the first time...
    Then I realized,
    When I needed you most,
    "You were not there"

    I wrote this shortly after my little brother took his life in 2003.
