Hey! Could I hold that for you?

(seriously)

When games are done
and our duty goes on,
let me hold on to your dreams.

Life colored-in
by our own touch
and time,
pain - the only out-line.

I care like you care,
see what you see,
soul-wide-open,
we belong.

A distant mirage,
the din of success,
finding our way now
- hold tight!

Placed with love
for safe-keeping,
a heart with a key.
I, for you, hold for me.

No sweat?
No tears?
What have we gained,
if we haven't been through it all?

(can YOU make me wise?)

Entwined in your strength,
the hope that you have
is still, very much, my own.

In the grand scheme,
of things to be,
we offer up our vows.

Tightly holding
to the unknown,
we step into time...

Together.
