Partnership

When a person close to me talks bad about me, 

 it disappoints me because....  

I could be helping you

 You could be helping me

Together we could be throwing

Words of encouragement back and forth.....

Creating a bond so strong

The average person stands in disbelief

When we soar to the top! 

But then again--

 I realize 
We're positioned at different levels on the mountain,

Climbing...
Not really knowing what the person up there knows,

Just what he knows and will continue to know

If he doesn't think beyond the obvious things.
