The hand that holds..


We search and look for someone who'll hold our hands.
We live and we love in hopes that life can be better when someone holds your hand, thinking that maybe holding your hand can be enough.
But its not. It never is.


So what if someone is indeed holding your hand and yet leaves you in the middle of all the chaos? So what if someone is there yet disappears and leaves you be on the first sound of alarm?
Can that be enough? Will that be enough?

It's so easy to find someone who'll hold your hand and take those walks along the beach with you. Someone you can share the night sky filled with stars. Someone who'll hold your hand on your best days, making everything around you feel perfect. It's easy finding someone you can share your interests with, someone you can laugh and enjoy with. But the challenge does not end there.

You need something beyond that.
You need someone who'll hold your hand when you're on your worst mood, even when you're being the worst you.
Someone who'll hold your hand when everything else around you has gone wrong.
Someone whom you can share your interests with and yet argues with you about his own viewpoint, exchanging thoughts and ideas thus learning from each other.
Someone you can laugh with and someone who can make you laugh even on days when you are in the lowest of low.
Someone who'll hold you close and safe from the harshness of the world.
And someone who'll hold your hand no matter what storms may come, what turbulence may shake both of you and no matter what happens.

You need that. We all need that.
We dont need someone who'll just hold our hands. We need someone who'll hold our hands, especially at times when the world is a dark, bleak void waiting to swallow us whole.
Someone who'll hold it tight,it seems they won't let go.

Wait. Maybe that's what we all need.
Someone who'll hold our hand and never let go.
