Hold my hand

I remember vividly,
holding your hand years back,

You used to show me the way,
when it was cloudy and dark!

I don’t know when and how my hand
slipped away from yours;

I lost the touch and contact with you,

I had forgotten you, but you always guarded me,

You always loved me and cared for me,

Although when I didn’t care for you.

Today when I feel myself lost
in this meaningless crowd,

Lost in the color, light, music, pomp
and show of this world!

My vision is clouded and I can’t see,
I fall quite often,

Please hold my hand,
I am tired, bewildered and lost!

Show me the way;
my path is all rough and steep,

Please hold my hand
for I am hurt and in pain!!

Shower your love and care;
please hold my hand once again.
