Hand in Hand

Scared. Too Scared of what                                                                           You Would do if I just grabbed your hand. Never did I think that you would                                                                           Let Such a thing happen. I could only Hope to feel the creases in your palm, the Soft, warm grasp of my Heart, held in yours. I was frozen in my seat by Fear of what you'd do to                                                                            Me If I just tried to Hold you. But you were scared too. We got on the roller coast and the Sudden rush made you                                                                           Hold Your breath. You needed security. You couldn't let                                                                          Your Life flash before your eyes as you rode This death machine They call a roller coaster! When you were afraid, you found What you needed. I was afraid, so I wouldn't. You were afraid, so you would: You closed your eyes and grabbed my                                                                          Hand.

This actually happened.

It needs some editing, so I guess this should only be considered a draft.
