The Power of a Hug

Such was the power of her hug

Like magic, they took away all my pain

And every time I came out of them as a new me

Such was the power of her hug,

Warm enough to heal all my wounds

The only cure to my broken heart,

Such was the power of her hug,

I have always felt those unspoken whispers,

Saying….

“fear not my little one…

Go where your will takes you,

Do what your heart tells you.

Fear not to stumble and fall

Fear not to speak your heart

Fear not to fail, my love.

And if you ever do….

Fear not to come to me”

Such was the power of her hug

They filled me with courage,

Courage, to go out and conquer my fear all over again.

As I always knew that she was there,

ready to wrap me up in her arms,

if I ever fail and fall.

I am blessed with your trust.

I am beatified with your love.

Such was the power of her hug,

she…the one who had lent me her womb for nine months

and her heart for a lifetime.
