Trying To Hold On

by Cindy   Feb 16, 2007


Stay here with me
Please don't ever leave
Everyone I have loved
Goes away I believe

Trying to hold on
To your loving hands
I feel them slipping
Without them I can't stand

Stay here with me
Help to keep me strong
Hold me so tightly
In your arms I belong

Trying to hold on
To your giving heart
Needing to hear it beat
Dieing when we're apart

Stay here with me
Fill my endless nights
Protect me from shadows
Till dawn shines its light

Trying to hold on
To your smiling face
I can always remember
Being in this happy place

    Hello Cindy,

    I hope this finds you better...

    This is heart wrenching poem, pleading for support, for love. It is bitterly sad as one should never have to ask, let alone 'beg'.

    I like the alternating refrain. This is clever and I have never thought of doing this and may do in the future.

    Take care Cindy, always hold on.

    Michael ((hugs))
