Poetry for people who could use a little kindness

I'm Here If You Need Me

I helped you out
And you got annoyed
You didn't want my help
Even if I thought you needed it

I tried again
but still got it wrong
I didn't understand
but you explained it

You don't want help
You want to prove
that you can go it alone
You don't need anyone

Then everything changed
Everyone needed help
So now I'll say instead
“I'm here if you need me”
