*~i Need A Favor~* Poem by Mary Nagy

*~i Need A Favor~*



Walk with me through sorrow.
Erase for me my shame.
Teach me of forgiveness.
Tell me I've no blame.

Reach into my darkness
and pull me to the light.
Read to me from your book.
Help me learn tonight.

Give to me your comfort
when that is all I ask.
Be there just to hold me...
a very simple task.

I'll return the favor.
One day you'll need me too.
I'll wash away your pain.
I will see you through.

This is such a humble request, there are times when you feel so low and its good to have someone who'll take you away from gloom. Nice write, but sad! Preets

shines so true of how i feel in my situation with me out of work. my wife is the only one working and it makes me feel so bad about myself. i just feel so lucky that she can carry me in my times of sorrow, and i feel i want to carry her and show her the same love she has shown me.
