Hold on....



What do you do when you see someone on the brink?
On the edge of tears.
Being swallowed by all their fears.
Somebody who wants to cry.
Smiling at the world in hopes of it believing the lie.
Knowing a person who puts everything on their shoulders.
Marching and smiling like a good soldier.
You hold on.

What do you do when you see someone who's gone to far?
While they dangle over the edge.
Because they got to close to the ledge.
Bottling up the truth for too long.
That they started to believe their own song.
Always living a life full of so many questions.
And never taking their own suggestions.
You hold on to their hand.

What do you do when sadness takes hold and won't let go?
Let them cry until there tears are no more.
They have broken down their walls and have given you a key to their locked door.
Feel every second of each heart beat.
Showing the monsters deep down they will feel defeat.
Always be there and never let them go.
They need you more than they will let you know.
You hold on that hug.

What do you do when you miss love?
Make note the way their lips taste.
The look of pure beauty in their face.
When you take their breath away.
Being in each other lives makes living worth it everyday.
Cherish every embrace.
Knowing you won when you finally became brave enough to start the chase.
You hold on to that kiss.

What do  you do when a child looks up to you?
Teach them what was fun when you were a kid.
Show them what you wish you did before you became to big.
Rule each other's life with love.
Protect them from the coldness of life like a winter's glove.
And always, always, always be there.
Showing up and listening is the biggest way of showing you care.
You hold on to their spirit.

What do you when you become lost?
Dream big and make your fantasies large.
Show the world that your ultimately in charge.
Listen to what you friends and family say.
They see your life in a whole different way.
Yesterday is gone and tomorrow is too late to start.
Stop feeding the demons and listen to your heart.
You hold on to you.

Hold on to love.
Never let go of life.
