all the dark things that surrounded us."

Holding hands 7-27-14 |
"Have you ever really held the hand of someone you love?
Not just in passing, a loose link between you -- but truly clasped,
with the pulses of your wrists beating together and your fingers mapping
the knuckles and nails like a cartographer learning a country by heart?"

"I wanna hold your hand."
-- The Beatles, "I Want To Hold Your Hand"
