Forgive me for needing you to be strong forever. Forgive me… - William Nicholson

" "
Forgive me for needing you
to be strong forever.
Forgive me for fearing
your unhappiness.

As you suffer
so I shall suffer.

As you endure
so I shall endure.

Hold my hands
and walk the old walk
one last time,
then let me go.
