Will you… hold my hand for a little while?
I don’t need you to save me.
No need for you to fix anything.
No need for you to carry my pain.

I don’t need you to save me.
No need for you to fix anything.
No need for you to carry my pain.
But will you simply hold my hand?
I don’t need your words,
Your thoughts,
Nor your shoulders to carry me.
But will you sit here for a while with me?
Whilst my tears stream,
Whilst my heart shatters,
Whilst my mind plays tricks on me,
Will you, with your presence, let me know that I am not alone, while I wander into my inner unknown?
For my darkness is mine to face,
My pain is mine to feel,
And my wounds are mine to heal.
But will you sit with me here, while I courageously show up for it all, my dear?
For I am bright because of my darkness,
Beautiful because of my brokenness,
And strong because of my tender heart.
But will you take my hand lovingly when I sometimes journey into the dark?
I don’t ask for you to take my darkness away,
I don’t expect you to brighten my day,
And I don’t believe you can mend my pain.
But I would surely love it if you could sit for a while and hold my hand, until I find my way out of my shadowland!
So, will you… hold my hand until I return again?
