A/N : Not convinced that this is as good as 'My Guiding Light', since I can't usually plan to write poetry, it just comes to me, but so many people left such nice reviews and one person asked for a Spike POV of 'Touched' so I did my best. Therefore, I dedicate this one to Rachel (SpIkEs AnGeL) who reviews practically every chapter of everything I write with these huge rambling reviews that I just love to receive. Of course I always appreciate everyone's reviews - you're all wonderful! :-) Oh, BtVS and all it's characters belong to Joss, obviously...
Holding On
You let me hold you tonight, and I don't ask why or how
And I know you have no idea, of how scared I am right now
Unbeliveable enough, that your friends sent you away
But nothing could hide my shock when, tonight you asked me to stay
You said it and I agreed, we were never really close
But of all people in my life, it is you I love the most
I wonder why I'm shaking, I can feel that you are too
And maybe it's the coming war, or maybe it's just us two
I never meant to love you, God knows I tried not to feel
But even when you used me, for me at least it was real
And I don't blame you, me, them, for all that's been done and said
Tomorrow it could be over, tomorrow we could be dead
So as you sleep I whisper, words you'd hate if you could hear
I tell you that I love you, that it's you and tonight I fear
'The Big Bad doesn't do scared', I could say in a manly tone
But I'm petrified by this night, the happiest I have known
I look into your eyes, I see no fear of the coming fight
I only wish I could see love, I don't, but that's alright
'Cause if we make it through this, maybe the fates will be kind
And the dream I have tonight, will come true, you will be mine
