I hold on
To thoughts and dreams
Things unknown and unseen
Bever letting go
I hold on
To things without potential
Things bound to fail.
I hold on
Waiting, hoping
Expectantly.
I hold on
To promises and people
And I trust way too easily because
I hold on
To my false hope that everyone is trustworthy,
That people are generally good.
I am often disappointed when things go wrong
Because I hold on
Stubbornly.
