One hand

When you look at me,
you don't see me,
you see a girl,
not alone,
not afraid,
not lost,
just a girl,
small,
fragile,
the girl they see,
the girl I present,
not a lie,
not the truth,
just a girl,
she hold on for dear life,
a smile,
where there could be tears,
a life afraid to be lived.​
The thing about a girl who's had her heart broken,
it takes years,
tears,
exercised fears,
and dramatic screams,
to even vent the pain they feel,
one girl no connections,
one girl all alone,
never realises,
one girl like so many others,
one is never alone,
a heart to never break again,
closed off to the world.
You can be healed,
you can grow,
you are not alone,
you are with the girl,
who is with the boy,
who can be anyone,
lost and alone,
we have all been,
small and fragile,
holding on by strings,
but one hand,
can lead to solid ground,
holding tight with no fear,
we all need you,
you need us,
Never alone.
Never afraid.
Never alone.
One hand to bring me back.
