Just be Held

by JB Guancia Dormido   Feb 17, 2015


Trying to hold it all together,
I needed to be strong 'cause somebody needs me somewhere.
but sometimes I'm barely holding on
'Cause life hits me out of nowhere.
I'm tired of fighting,
Sick of holding back this feeling.
I want to just surrender,
I feel so stuck, everything starts to wither.
I wanna lay it down and just let it all go,
It's getting heavier.Down on my knees, I wait for answers.
I'm shaking, trying to find beauty in the ashes.
Hands are numb, holding together the broken pieces.
Dreams run out of the blue and get shattered.
How much more tears do I have to shed?
My world is about to fall apart,
There's too much pain stored here in my heart.
I feel so alone,
I'm tired of holding on.
I can no longer go ahead.
This time, I just want to be held.

    I can relate to this. Its a very well written poem, with feelings oozing from it. Beautiful.

    Sometimes, I just need someone to tell me that everything will be okay, even though it is the stupidest thing to say sometimes. I need to know that my world is not falling apart.

    Beautiful.
