A sample from Book 5
Hold My Hand
when I'm lost
― confused
wanting to give up
will you hold my hand
when I doubt
want a way out
will you stick around
when I'm angry
―scream
call you names
will you not place blame
when I cry
lost in sadness
will you change my mind
to live and not die
when I hate
my vision clouded
will you be my guide
tell me my life
is not a lie
when I want to run
leave all behind
draw a heavy line
will you walk beside me
―hold my hand
take my feet
from the sand
plant them
on solid ground
when I'm alone
lost in darkness
make you want to leave
will you forgive
help my eyes to see
everything
I want to be
when I'm here
cold...closed up inside
will you stay
give me space
help me see my way
when I want
to give up
will you stand by me
take my hand
help me be free
help me to see
what it takes
to be happy
(June 12, 2013)—[‘Hold My Hand’ was written June 12, 2012.] Every girl wonders these things when they’re in love. Most of us are just afraid to ask.
(May 22, 2015)—As I’m reading through my works, putting thoughts together for my book, I come across pieces that truly touch my heart.
‘Hold My Hand’ was written after a long over-the-phone conversation I had with a friend I hadn’t met in person yet. We met over a dating site and began talking on a semi-regular basis. He had a way of making me look deep within myself and ask myself what I really wanted, truly wanted. This piece was the result of some of those many conversations.
