Written in response to songwriter’s corner challenge. I’v had a couple of close Loved ones commit suicide lately...hard life where ever you go...a song of hope....

hold onto me

the wind..
it comes hard
every direction
if i fall asleep
will i awake
if i fall asleep
will i awake
or just burn

our love...
it comes hard
a smoke detection
odd circumstances
through the art
of mistake
odd circumstances
through the art
of mistake
i cannot take
no more

hold onto me now
hold onto me
hold onto me now
hold onto me
thought this world
was easy street
thought the floor
beneath my feet

am i falling
all the way
am i drifting
yeah, i’m drifting away
do i feel the nighttime
eclipsing the day

the Light...
it shines hard
a pinhole fraction
i sense the softness
of your wings
i sense the softness
of your wings
uplift me!

hold onto me now
hold onto me
hold onto me now
hold onto me
thought the floor
was an easy street
thought the world
was beneath my feel
i’m letting go
into the Passion
of the Mercy Seat
gonna fall into
the Passion of
the Mercy Seat
take the rite
of Passion
of the Mercy Seat
hold onto me now
hold onto me...
