You raise me up

You raise me up

A Poem by The Avid Bibliophile

I look to you for guidance

I look to you for strength

I look to you to ease my pain

And save me from myself

 

I look to you for empathy

I look to you for praise

I live for your warm smiles

And your kind and caring words

 

When I’m floundering in water

You are my life preserver

And when I fall, no need to fear

For you’ll be there to catch me

 

You are my guardian angel

You are my light in darkness

And when I’m lost, you’ll take my hand

And guide me safely home

 

When I feel like I’m drowning

You are my steady ground

And when I’m sad, you hold me

And brush away my tears

 

You tell me that you love me

You say you’ll protect me

I know that I can trust you

And that I am safe here
