For My Friends (Sad, or Needing Support)

Enter yourself with that tough bit of hope,
Past all of your shadows to where you need to be.
Whisper away the bruises and be held through the night
They need you there, they need you there,
While you massage away the dwelling frights.
Nothing more to swallow you.
Nothing more to hollow you.
Love will fill you up, love will fill you up
And someday your smile won’t be stolen.
I swear someday your smile won’t be stolen.
Leave the huddle and fetal crouch
To the place where the world seeks you out.
Shout about the bruises and not being alone.
We need you here, we need you here,
Welcome back to your soft-gated home.
