Hold On
I try to let go of them,
I try to make them leave,
But they hold on to my fingertips.
Wanting, trying,
Almost needing
To stay.
Why is it
I cannot
Hold on
To you?
I try to make them leave,
But they hold on to my fingertips.
Wanting, trying,
Almost needing
To stay.
Why is it
I cannot
Hold on
To you?

A dichotomy of our nature... wanting to let go yet wanting to hold on. Your succinct pieces speak with depth.

For what I was speaking of, I was definitely wanting to let go. :) They were holding on. I always had a picture in my mind of a hand trying to shake people off while they held tight. All the while the one I wanted walking away. Funny picture.

It is my pleasure. Its like a painting and with each read more detail is added to the portrait.
