Walk Beside Me Poem by Amber Zitzloff

Walk beside me when I am weak
hold my hand when I feel meek.
Be my friend when no one's there
free me from the burdens I can not bare.
Oh how I want to believe you're true
show me love in all that I do.
Tell me I'm a special girl
show me how to give life a whirl.
Pull me up when I fall down
or when someone throws me to the ground.
Feel my heart, timid and scared
Show me the truth when I think no one has cared.
Show me your glory and power and love
untie these wings, help me fly like a dove.
Rock me gently when I feel fear.
listen to me, I want you to hear.
Tell me that my dreams will come true
teach me how to live like you.
Grab my hand and pull me along
even when I do it wrong.
Show me the world how its meant to be seen
teach me not everyone is harsh and mean.
Hold me up when I'm sad and weary
calm me down in my times of fury.
Don't try to tame me, instead run along side
swim with me through the ocean's tide.
Climb with me throughout the mountains
splash with me in life's beautiful fountains.
Show me the rainbow, teach me love's true
tell me it's waiting for me and for you.
