Hold Them Dear

Hold them dear,
Don't let them go.
For reasons you will never know.

Don't forget to smile,
And dream big dreams.
Because nothing is ever what it seems.

In loss of words,
Do not fear...
all the things you need to hear.

Don't indulge your rage...
In what was taken,
Because your thoughts might be mistaken.

I hope you know what to say,
for those who have lost someone.
Because no one can undo what was already undone.

So hold them dear,
Don't let them go.
For what they need is your love to show.
