Let Me Hold You

If you hold on to your pain,

It will never let you go.

Put it down,

And let me hold you.

.

I know the world is crumbling on itself,

I know you feel its heaviness weighing on your shoulders.

For a moment,

Let it go,

And let me hold you.

.

The earth can wait while you recharge in this space.

You can cry here,

You can take deep breaths,

Exhaling the soot imprisoned in your chest.

You are safe in this place of you and I.
