Gentle soul
I can not ease your journey
nor tell you where it is
your steps must fall
I can not turn back time
nor erase what's done
fate will not bend
to the will of mortals
and my tears cannot wash away
your pain or regret
I can do naught
but lend these meager hands
to help you up should you stumble
I can offer no solution
but lend these shoulders
to help support your burdens
I can work no spell
but lend this heart
to listen when you need to speak
or comfort where you will let me
I wish only for the gods/goddesses
to bless you
with the strength
to weather the storm
that your wounds will mend
that your heart will sing once more
that your smile will reach your eyes
that your inner beauty will shine
with light of a thousand stars again
without the clouds of sorrow as cover
that you will see tomorrow with new hope
I can give you nothing
but my friendship
support and love
and pray that
that will be enough
