Reaching out 
A blinding light
Warmth and comfort
Loving unconditionally
*Life holds out a hand*

Standing there 
Nowhere to turn
No sounds of music
Just whispering voices
*Fear holds out a hand*

Wanting knowledge
Needing more 
Striving for perfection
Craving the elegance
*Greed holds out a hand*

Voices soft and sweet
A tender touch
Legacies left behind
A heart well given
*Death holds out a hand*

Very good. The holding out of hands reminds me of another poem, yet this is a very original write. I love it.
