Reflection

Hope lies here in this my heart; I lay before you.

You can’t see but it’s here; I promise to show you 

Take my hand, don’t be afraid; please, I implore you 

Here I’ll stand; I’ll never leave; l’ll

not ignore you 

For you, my dear, fill me up with inspiration 

Quell your fears, to help others in desperation 

Reaching out without a moment’s hesitation 

Seeking out with such empathy, dedication 

Let me hold up a mirror to your affection 

Then you’ll feel the love you give without exception  

I’ll unfold, gently smooth away all your tensions 

Help you heal; feel again love and exultation 

Your sacrifice; I’ll repay with loves reflection

With my heart; I’ll keep yours safe with love’s protection
