Take my Hand

Take my hand to hold

your thoughts, fears

dreams, and wishes.

I will hold them while you rest.

Squeeze my hand

when the tears run down

your cheeks from the pain

of life.

I will squeeze back so you

know you are heard.

Grab my hand

when you feel like you’re

slipping into the abyss.

I will hold you steady

as you step back on solid ground.

Take my hand in friendship, love, and support.

Your thoughts, fears, dreams, wishes,

pain and unsteady gait are safe in my firm and steady grip.
