This short poem offers comfort and support to someone struggling emotionally. It says that if the reader wants to cry, run away, or not listen to anyone, they can call the author. While the author can't promise to make them laugh or ask them to stop, they will cry with them, run with them, and be there quietly for them. The poem concludes by saying if the author doesn't answer one day when called, the reader should go see them fast, as the author may need the reader's support in return.

2. If one day you feel like
crying...
Call me.
I don't promise that I will
make you laugh,
But I can cry with you

3. If one day you want to run
away--
Don't be afraid to call me.
I don't promise to ask you
to stop...
But I can run with you

4. If one day you don't want
to listen
to anyone...
Call me.
I promise to be there for
you.
And I promise to be very
quiet.

5. But if one day you
call...
And there is no
answer...
Come fast to see me.
Perhaps I need you.
