To have is not to obtain

You're like the earth underneath my feet,
someone I can walk on... taking me from place to place and give me balance
someone I can talk to... for hours while staring at the stars
someone I can lay on... take a nap and wish to never wake up
but when I want to grab you, you dissapear between my fingers,
because nothing can hold you... you're an independent being
capable to live alone, to survive and to vanish like the very finest bit of sand that you're made of
You're like the earth underneath my feet
You're just there...
