If I could create a meadow
For us to sit upon
There, we'd sit together
From dusk until dawn

If I could catch a rainbow
I would do it just for you
And share with you it's beauty
On the days you're feeling blue

If I could build a mountain
You could call your very own
It would give you company
On the days you're all alone

I may not be able to creat a meadow
And catch a rainbow, too
But when you're feeling down
Remember, I am here for you

This poem came to me when one of my friends were feeling down. I knew i really couldnt do or change anything that had happened, but i still wrote this just to make them feel better.
