Hugs


Hugs
When feeling alone
a hug reminds you that you're not 
When feeling as if your mind is tying you down
a hug sets you free
When feeling a looming and forbidding darkness hovering above you
a hug protects you 
When feeling as though you are helplessly floating away from the ones who love you
a hug brings you back to shore 
When feeling buried under your own thoughts
a hug digs you up

hugs wake you up, help you sleep, make you laugh, and make you cry 
a true reviver of spirits
