I want to hold your hand

I want to hold your hand.
No, I'm not weak,
No, I'm not falling.
And no, I'm not in love with you.
I want to hold your hand
Because life feels a little empty.
My hand is always full
Sometimes with a bag,
Most of the time with a phone
Often with too many thoughts
At times, with one too many questions
And it's been a long time since my hand has been held.
It's been a long time since my questions have been answered,
A long while since my bags and burdens have been shared.
I want to hold your hand so that life feels lighter,
So that together we balance out the world,
For no man was meant to live as an island,
No man was made to be alone.
I want to hold your hand for companionship.
I've learnt that companionship cannot come from a phone.
Give me your hand, I'll help you as you help me,
And it won't mean more than that, I promise
It won't mean more than that, you'll see.
But as much as it does mean, it will be all we need.
