“Hold Onto Me” is a poem about someone who just can’t seem to let a beautiful girl out of their mind, heart, and soul, because they feel like nothing without her.
Hold onto me
If you let go
I may fall
And shatter
But the brown-eyed goddess
Says to me, “If I love you
I must set you free”
I shudder and shake
Unsure why she should
Let me go so soon
Hold onto me
I say to her
Your beauty
Is magic I need
“You have it within you”
She says to me
“To be free and fly”
But I will never forget
The touch of her skin
The soft of her hair
The warmth of her smile
“This is not right”
She says to me
“You will find yourself”
Somehow, someway
I want to believe her
Even still today
