Hands


Hands that reach
          hands that feel
                    hands that hold
                              you very still

Hands that teach
          hands that tear
                    hands that keep
                              you in despair

Hands that keep you silent
          hands that hold your throat
                    hands that touch your stomach
                              hands that you hope won’t

Hands that hold your ankles
          hands that touch your breast
                    hands that reach inside you
                              and take your very best

Hands that steal your soul
          hands that drown your screams
                    hands that reach right through you
                                        to rip apart your dreams
