My Hands

I’ve not much to give you
My hands may seem empty
Look closely…

One holds serenity

With which at least
You can soothe the savage beast

And the other holds a thread

To stitch your tattered soul
So that once again it may be whole

And yes, I see your melting eyes
This hand shall wipe them dry

And together these hands will hold
Your fragile heart so bold

This is all I have to give you…

My hands may seem empty.
