Inspirational Speech/Poem
What Every Person Needs ...
by Silvia Hartmann
What we all need as human beings
is really, just
one single person
to be absolutely on our side.
Someone who has faith in us,
someone to really love us as we are,
no questions asked,
without reservations
or judgements of any kind;
Just a single person
who will always be there
to help us, protect us;
To inspire us, applaud us
when we have succeeded in something,
no matter how insignificant
it may seem to an outsider;
Someone who will encourage us
to strive towards
the best we can possibly be,
and always, always cheer us on;
Someone who cannot ever be tempted away
by youth, beauty, money, bribes
and will always choose us,
every day, each moment afresh;
someone to stand by us
when everything falls apart,
who will love us no matter what;
Someone who will never let us down,
never give up on us,
never leave us
and who will always, always
be fiercely and actively loving of us
in every way, every day,
until we take our last breath in physicality.
Well, that person is here.
It is you.
And now, finally, we can start
on the road to be that person
we always knew we should have been -
with a little help from our self,
our endlessly loving totality.
