 A fleeting grasp is life
So filled with sorrow
so dirty and forsaken
we're given to wander and stray
enliven this heart today
brighten this skin
and make holy the unclean
leave and let go of this life
to find what you have for me
for in letting go I take hold of the unknown
and I live by faith.

I really like the lighting here and the tones. It looks like the hand is just holding the rope, I think that if it had been pulling tighter on the rope, it would have created more tension (no pun intended) in the picture.
