taking my hand my eyes are closed looking deep inside letting things come giving them a place to reside absorbed in thought feelings abound not sure what to do unsure where to stand wanting someone to hold reaching out for a hand i try to take hold i reach farther out my arms extend my mind full of doubt scared to death not knowing what to expect my arms slightly lower my heart slowly shrivels up there as a hand but now it has been taken away ripped out and with it went part of my heart a piece of me a part that may never be known i let my eyes open the light clearing my head my thoughts gather my feelings no longer hide looking down, i see a new hand holding on tight embracing me and my fright a feeling of comfort as my eyes close once more my eyes are closed my heart slowly heals i feel so close it feels so real taking comfort in them yet still scared to death i open my eyes seeing that you haven't left. stay by my side hold me tight keep me close i don't want to be hurt again i don't want to lose what feels so right. - Liquid Steel   [[ back ]]
