Description Your quivering hand, but not because of the frost;
I held your hand tight in mine,
while you were quivering in pain.
It was the silence, which hurt most;
The silence which stole your cries from my ears,
The same which hid your tears from me.
I thought of a thousand ointments I could have made,
I tried my best to remember all the remedies
I might have known...
I did my very best, desperately, to maybe ease your suffering.
Yet what could cure a pain so deep under skin, flesh and bone?
I held your hand, stepped stronger forwards;
trying to be as solid as the mountains you cherished so;
I wanted you to know, that I, too would be walking this path;
Even if I can not make your pain go away.

No more quivering in my hand,
since our hands were torn apart;
And still we walk this path, side by side.
I have been whispering to all the trees along this road;
And they to all the trees along every road
To hold your hand with a strength beyond mine,
When you pass by;
For I know you will make a stop by every tree on your way.

Thanks but to be frank I do not believe life has ever worked itself out for anyone, so we keep trying to make it work out. ^^
