Small Gestures
I will take your hand
and maybe it will be rough
and maybe it has dirt on it
and maybe the fingers aren't the prettiest
but I know this hand has held the darkest moments
I know it has thrown rocks for self protection against
bombs
I know it has been stabbed when it has reached out to be shaken
I will take this hand
and I will hold it
because even after all it has been through,
I know it will still hold mine back.
