If I could wade waters with you
I would take you to the lake
you tried to drown your misery in
and rescue you from that bully
who tries every day to extinguish
your light.
As you dried your tears,
I'd hold up a mirror to let you see
every ounce of goodness
you have bestowed on this earth:
Every scrape you’ve bandaged,
every lonely moment you lightened,
every hug you have given,
every broken heart you’ve consoled,
every person you have championed for.
I would tell you that in this world
you’re so sure doesn’t need you,
there are people hoping
for something only you
have the heart to give.
