In Hopes of Hold & Grasp

face-down

 

why  not
  look...

 

we haven't
   yet

 

joined
          the 
              whispy
                         dust,

 

and  we
  can't

 

hide
       our
            very
                 essence

      
away  forever, 

in  hopes 
  of 

   hold
& grasp
