Pass through <br />the dark gates <br />to find <br />a new person, <br />yourself. <br /> <br />My friend, you are there <br />deeper in, <br />quietly watching, <br />listening, <br />sharing it all. <br /> <br />It is simple now. <br /> <br />You are beyond psychology, <br />beyond words and concepts, <br />fabrications and complications. <br /> <br />If I can hold onto <br />your robe <br />or your waist, <br />throw a lasso <br />around you! <br />and be pulled along, <br />I will be safe <br />whatever <br />the thorn hedges <br />or deserts <br />or oases.<br /><br />Ian Trousdell<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/hard-times-if-i-can-hold-onto/
