Poem: Helping Hands

When you want to cry
or even die
you need to understand
& take the helping hand
when your nee's are on the ground
you hear two sounds
the sound of your fear
it seem's so queer
when you hear the right voice
you feel so rejoice
so you start to feel
emotions that are real
now you understand
you should take a helping hand.

A.A., age 15
