I don't want to held
like you would never let me go
for we both know
that time will come and make it so
hold me like a lost soul
who's almost found his way home
not too tightly
not too close
For when daylight comes
I have a long road to trudge
I don't want to be held
for dear life
for those who called me
Dear,
discarded me
when their need was done
and their want was met
Hold me loosely,
so that it won't hurt
When you lose me
I don't want to be held too long
that I might think I belong
for we both know that would be wrong
for circumstances won't keep me long
hold me like a wisp in the night
the kind that vanishes by light
the kind whose faint memories fade
when you focus on what is your life
