If You Ever Had To Leave
The people that you love make your world a better place… As you do for them too. Sometimes they're so special that they feel like they are your world. And the thought of ever losing them is one of life’s biggest fears - I think. So, I wrote this poem 'If You Ever Had To Leave'.
What to say when you don’t know what to say.
