Needing A Hand

Needing A Hand

A Poem by Lover Of Words

Being one that does not tend to ask for help 
But being that I am doing the best that I can 
I am still climbing hill but still have mountains to climb 
Touching the sky 
Returning the favor 
If someone gives me their hand 
Needing the support 
Before i can see the light 
I have cried and cried 
But unable to hide it anymore 
Being fearful of my own life at times 
No one has come close enough to see the worst 
I run cool 
I run hot 
Break my code 
And you will see me come out on my knees 
My eyes blood shot 
But when i am needing a saving hand 
Who will be the one to love me though my fears

It takes courage to ask for that helping hand...but we are strong when we can admit we need a hand...well written....

A powerful and true poem. All of us need a helping hand. We also must be the kind voice and the "You are going to be alright" whisper when needed. I like the complete poem. Thank you for reading and the comment.

You're welcome lol
sometimes you just need to catch your breath... and re-balance. Other times, well - we can only do the best we can AS we can.

Sweet Kelsey,

The Greatest of men/woman are those who have been on there knees.

I never forgot what Bob Hope said to "Lucille Ball" at one of her dedications.
He cried when he said it too! She won another award and recognition for making the world laugh.
He said not many know of Lucy's real life but it took someone to know of great sorrow to know what it takes to make the world laugh.
My Step-Dad has CP and I can only imagine what difficulties and complications you might be going thru Just like he does and he is not even in a chair like you.
You are so Beautiful Kelsey and your mission here is up to you. to do the best you can to follow your heart. Same as everyone else. your CP and everything else has nothing to do with your Heart :-) You will do it!
People will come and go.
Now to reply to who will be there. Kelsey the first most important person who will always be in your life is YOU ! And who else will all depend on your thoughts and actions. This is your life and your soul and you will do with it as you see fit. You might be a card in a deck but you get to deal all the rest of your life.
