I Hold You Close ~ Watercolour Painting by Patrice

I hold you close
I hold
you near
nothing will harm you
I am here. 

The world may turn
spin around
but
here we’ll be
on
solid ground.

I Hold You Close

I Hold You Close ~ Watercolour by Patrice

I hold you
close
I feel your
breath. 

I take a chance. 

I move
closer
to
your heart
to hear it
beat. 

Your arms envelope me. 

What could be better? 

What else do I need? 

Questions 

Answers 

Don’t need them
when
I’m beside my love
the one
I cherish
the one I need.

I hold you 
close 
I hold you tight 
we are together 
thru 
the long 
dark night 

In the morning 
when the sun shines bright 
we’ll walk together 
no fear 
no fright.

I hold you close 
I keep you
tight to my chest 
No one will come
between our love 
you are the one 
the best. 

Our love will live 
into tomorrow 
all the days ahead 
for you are my love 
the one I live for 
long for 
forgetting all the rest.
