a chain as strong as its weakest link 
each link close enough to feel the distance
still dreaming to be on the verge of touch,
       &nbsp;&nbsp;reaching out out of reach
   &nbsp;&nbsp; even a sturdy soul may falter

    &nbsp;&nbsp;alone together hand to hand
        
 a union the sum of its mindful grip
&nbsp;&nbsp;faith in the strength of love strong
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;the heart opens unconditionally
&nbsp;&nbsp; encompassing all that is in doubt

  &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;reaching out to strengthen
            &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; arm to arm
        &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; hand and hand
  &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; grasping love  
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;the unbreakable chain-link
