Jusy Hold Me- a Collaboration With Eileen Manassian


Just Hold Me
She: 	
Just hold me here close to your heart 
Let me stay tranquil a while 
This world has wrested my joy away 
And has robbed me again of my smile

He:
I will hold you forever, part of my soul 
To linger with me until time’s end 
I will bring the joy back to your life 
Your beautiful smile will transcend 

She: 
Just keep me here secure in your arms 
Blissful and unaware of the strife 
There are those around who wish me harm 
Be Protector of my heart and life

He:
Forever I keep you safe in my arms 
Within my soul you shall dwell 
A refuge from the pain of the world 
My love shield, your fear will dispel 


She: 
Calm and soothe me, please, cherish me
And in this haven, let me rest
There is sweetness that here abides
When I am pressed close to your chest

He:
In silent embrace our hearts are one 
Find in me comfort and surcease of soul 
My love shall buoy you through every storm 
As our love the Angels extol




My dearest Enchantress thank you for allowing me to add my pen to your beautiful words. Your heart as always shows through what you write with your quill of gold.
all my love Shane ***

Mikki my wonderful friend how lovely of you to take a dip in my little pond. Thank you for your kind words and the irish blessing it is so sweet. Writing with Eileen was very special, also a little daunting, I love her poetry so much and I was afraid I would let her down. I have missed speaking with you lately send me a mail if you have time to chat. love Shane xxx your
