Please
Please reach inside and find his heart.
Stop the pain from being ripped apart.
Please take his hand in your gentle way.
Show him the gift of a brighter day.
Please reach down, touch the lines on his face,
and give him a smile to take their place.
Please reach in the sky for a few bright stars,
place them in his eyes to cover his scars.
Please reach down and hold him tight,
and carry him through till he sees your light.
