Writing and Photography by Jeff E. Brown

Pour your anxieties into a big bowl.
Toss in your fears-I’ll swallow them whole.
I’m not a hero,
Just someone that’s good to know.
I’ll do whatever it takes
To help you cope and make a clean break.

We all need an ally
As we struggle to understand why.
Why so much hurt to overcome?
Battling until the last and then you’re done.
Take my hand-
I’ll pull you up and help you stand.
