Untitled

In your darkness, how can I help?
I wish is was as simple as a turned switch
But I know the night, and it is not for me to fix
What can I do?
The path you walk, I cannot light
But I can come alongside
Take your hand
Whisper words of love that heal
I will not force you faster towards the end
I may be able to see
But for now
I know you can only
Lift and set down your feet as you go
I will not leave, though I know there are things
You must fight on your own
I cannot make you whole
But I will stand here, until my body
Is cold
Strengthened by the Love who will not let me go
I give myself to restore
