How You Holding Up?

In shadows deep where questions creep,

A phrase emerges, soft and sweet.

"How you holding up?" it weaves,

A caring thread, a heart relieves.

In life's grand tapestry, we find,

Moments tough, both heart and mind.

Through trials faced and battles fought,

This query echoes, comfort sought.

A friend in words, a simple plea,

To share the load, set spirits free.

Through highs and lows, together stand,

A helping heart, a guiding hand.

So, when life's storms begin to brew,

And shadows cast their darker hue,

Remember well this phrase, sincere,

"How you holding up?" draws near.
