There are certain times...

There are certain times... 
We do not need unbridled passion, 
Do not want to kiss on the mouth, 
And do not desire bodies to meet on
the softness of the bed ... 

There are certain times... 
We just want a hand on our shoulder, 
A tight  hug, 
Or even just be there, quietly beside, 
Saying nothing .... 

There are certain times... 
When we are almost to cry, 
We desire a friendly presence, 
That can hear us patiently, 
That plays with us, 
That makes us smile ... 

Someone who laughs at our most bland jokes,
That thinks that our sorrows are the world's largest ones.
Or that makes us endless compliments ... 
But despite all these useful lies, 
This person is of an unquestionable sincerity ... 

Someone to tell us to shut up when necessary,
Or avoid us to make a thoughtless gesture, 
Someone who can tell us: 
I think you're wrong, but I'm by your side ... 

Or someone who just says: I LOVE YOU!!!
