Just hold my hand

MY FRIEND I CARE

Don't tell me that you understand,
don't tell me that you know
Don't tell me that I will survive,
how I will surely grow.

Don't tell me this is just a test,
that I am truly blessed.
That I am chosen for this task,
apart from all the rest

Don't come at me with answers
that can only come from me,
Don't tell me how my grief will pass
that I will soon be free

Don't stand in pious judgment
of the bonds I must untie,
Don't tell me how to suffer,
don't tell me how to cry,

My life is filled with selfishness,
my pain is all I see,
But I need you, I need your love,
unconditionally.

Accept me in my ups and downs,
I need someone to share
Just hold my hand and let me cry,
and say, "My friend, I care."
