Holding Tightly

Melancholy moments your silence can always expose

Holding tightly to the dreams with you Christina Rose

While my heart aches my mind replays your pretty eyes

Drawn as I was from the first look launched perpetual tries

To sidle up close and meld warmly into one heartbeat

Is the thing that keeps me going, without you I’m incomplete

Pain is a companion I long to give the slip once and for all

And I know that beside you I will be standing proud and tall

Melancholy moments your touch and every one of them goes

Holding tightly to the dreams with you Christina Rose
