Shaken

I approached you shaken
I held your hand, but you never shook me
Though your present state
Your beauty over took me
From the first look see

I saw all that is creation and what it could be
Destruction and the ability to create
Nothing is gone until it has gone away
Wipe those tears off your face
I have no cape, but words of faith

Hold on to me it will be OK
You may explain your current pain
I will help you not to hold it in vain
Your hearts in flames, cool words soothe
What has shaken you, stirring you
To come undone
Form what’s not cool
These words as I hold you
Hold you from shaken your faith,
With shields you are bound to create

I say these words to hold you
As I hold your hand, letting you know I understand
I hold your hand you understand
So don’t be shaken
