Let Me Hold Your Mic

Let me feel your pain Let me disappear in your depth Let me paint with your tears Let me read from your wrinkles Let me hold the gem that makes you Let my tongue speak of the strength, that's you I hear you I feel your pain I respect the strength, that's you Inspired by Darlene Gifford's poems: on the bridge too far, a rainbow glitters, my little soldier boy and on the beach at dusk
