My Hands Wrapped Around Your Heart©

I find my hands wrapped around your heart
Holding it together
Hoping you won’t falter
Falter from all that you are
From all that you have to offer
Your heart appears broken
Broken and tired
Tired from the pain
The pain that you feel with every prick and prod
The pain that you feel as you sit in the chair with another nameless face beside you
Every visit tears a little more of your heart away
You yearn for a time before becoming sick
You are hopeful for tomorrow
But know it’s not in your hands
You ask for gods help
You hope he’s listening
Everyone you know and love supports you
You’re never alone
Each day you’re getting stronger
Your color is coming back
I even see your hair growing
You tell me you’re coming back
There’s a smile across your face
A familiar smile that I used to know
One that I’m happy to know again
Your prayers are being answered
Because here you are once again with
My Hands Wrapped Around Your Heart
I’m so happy that you’re ALIVE!
