Dreams tap into our subconscious. Being on a high place without barriers might symbolize a sense of vulnerability or feeling exposed in a situation in your waking life. The person holding you could represent protection or you holding onto an idea in real life. The intense gaze and the sensation of your soul leaving your body could reflect a deep emotional impact that feels almost transcendental, but the change in their eyes, turning red/orange with an animal-like appearance, might suggest a shift in perception, perhaps a warning or heightened awareness about something significant related to that person or situation. The intense feeling you experienced in the dream could indicate a powerful conflict occurring within you.
