Nights left you nearly weightless
Heart shook beneath your breath
A lonely pulse sought comfort
On borders close to death
Fingers reached for fingers
Skin answered with a clasp
A quiet link formed softly
Inside your steady grasp
Warmth circled through that contact
Calm soothed each shaken strand
A future signed its promise
In how you held your hand
Keep this living gesture
Let kindness guide the brand
Lives reshape their pages
Through hands in their own hand
