Jonzo Bandwagoner - Holding On

You grasp my hand
For a balancing act,
I fear of losing your touch,
Your gaze.

I grip harder; no,
I'm not letting go,
Your eyes tell me you're just
Nervous.

But you let go. I unwrap
My hand from yours, your gaze
From mine; my heart, your
Heart remains.

Even if a balancing act,
Requires we let go, I'll
Still fall with you, down,
Down, down.
