When I'm feeling alone,
A stranger from the group
I pour myself a heaping bowl
Of teenage chicken soup.
*
Those I meet inside here
Never ask me to explain.
They understand without a word
And also feel my pain.
*
Was it something in my story
That changed your life today?
The healing words of one like me
Who found himself astray?
*
Did you feel that bond between us
Through our taking and our giving?
Did you touch that part inside my heart
That said to go on living?
*
Your words come flying back to me.
They lay upon your letter.
I'm glad to know I helped you
And that you're feeling better.
*
When you are feeling stronger
Since our lives and words have crossed
Go out and help another soul
Who's out there feeling lost.
