Take My Hand Poem by Andreas Simic

When you are
lonely
sad
unhappy

No matter
where you are
the place you're in now
or how deep you have sunk

Know that
there is always a tomorrow
those who lead sometimes follow
success is measured by you

I will be there
to hold you up
give you strength
embrace your soul

Life is
lived one day at a time
each moment counting on its own
from blessing to blessing

Hear
my voice to guide you
through times that are tough
for you are never truly alone

Let your
thoughts be bright
even when it doesn't seem all right
all the while remembering I am holding your hand
