~*~

You don't want to take my hand
afraid of my hold being too strong
or of me letting go somewhere in the crowd

my closeness scares you
but I promise to be there only
when you want me to be

never will I hold you against your will
only if you're lonely or frightened

then I will take your hand
to protect you from all bad dreams
and anxiety-ridden nightmares
just like that
in bare simplicity
