There are many things
That I am capable
But to hold your hand is a crime
When you are able
I can cheer you on from the sidewalk
I can be your biggest fan
But if you don’t want to help yourself
I just can’t hold your hand
There are times when maybe
I can assist you
I can show you little tips and tricks
Show you anything you want me to
I can teach you like a teacher
I can guide you to great things
But if you don’t believe in yourself
My help will all mean not a thing
There are many things
That I am capable
But to hold your hand is a crime
When you are able
I can’t help you
Unless you help me
And in order to help me
You have to get on your two feet
I can cheer you on from the sidewalk
I can be your biggest fan
I can teach you like a teacher
I can guide you to great things
But what are my efforts
If you are afraid to stand tall
Just stop being afraid to stand
And I will help you when you fall
“I can’t help you unless you are willing to help yourself……” –Monica Renata
