as my brain fogs up and my breath struggles throat closes my hands clench air as my muscles shake and a shudder rips through me
i need you just to hold me rub my back, and hold my clenched hands, lay me down and hold me. kiss my cheeks nose, lips, eyelids and hold me. nothing needs to be said, just hold me until everything's okay until the pain leaves until i can think again until i notice you holding me i'll return all the kisses hugs, hand holding i'll return every minute of you holding me with me holding you every time you need to be held i'll hold you until you sleep if you hold me to sleep tonight
