She Carries Me Through
Gentle words, caring spirit
touches my heart.
From within the darkness,
emotions swirl, trapping me
behind a cage, with no door.
I see no way to escape, and I
collapse under the weight.
One single hand reaching out,
to soothe my broken, empty heart.
Someone to lean on, someone who
cares, as I take their hand, and release
my tears.
I feel her arm around me,
as she holds me really tight.
Softly whispering in my ear,
that you are going to be alright.
I am here for you and I will stay
all night.
Carrying me, like a mother
does a child. Carrying me,
over the rough edges of hurt
and pain, until I can find the strength
to walk on my own again.
She carries me, as I hold her hand,
and say -
Thank you, you saved my life.
She carries me through.
