Will You Hold My Hand?

----

Is death so close to me

That I can't even grab your hand.

I can hear it whisper my name,

These bloody wings will carry my burden.

-

I look toward the future

Darkness encircling my being.

These wings were made for a reason

They don't fly without reason.

They head toward the future

With no destination in mind.

-

Will you hold my hand

Even through the darkness.

With no one to catch hold,

To grasp the meaning of life.

-

My time is nearing the end

And I fear of letting you go.

Will we ever meet again?

Will our hands ever touch,

Will we reach the endless sky?

-

Even now I fear for my life,

I can't even see your hand.

Will I be able to grasp it

Feel its warmth,

Be free?

-

Will you hold my hand?

The end is near

And so is our life.

-

Will you hold my hand…
