&quot; Times you see, is a little arrangement that man has made for himself to try to measure the immeasurable mysteries of life.&quot; -Calypso to Ulysses (Bernard Evslin.)<br /> &quot;You don&#039;t have a soul, you are a soul. You have a body&quot; - CS Lewis


I find myself needing
Something to hold onto
Someone to hold me
And keep me safe

I want that odd feeling
That tightness
That closeness

I want to hold on
And feel safe from the world

When I was younger
I felt that safeness
I could hold onto my dreams
And they'd hold onto me

Now I'm older
And my dreams are farther away
They're still there
But my grip is weak
And I lose my hold

You have held me
And I have been able to hold on
You feel the same
As these dreams of mine

This is something I have needed
This is something I have wanted
Something to hold onto
Something to hold onto
Can I hold onto you?
