Holding On Poem by XXXHolix Fire

As I lived on
As I learned
As I thought about life
I started to realize
That I couldn't hold on to everything forever

I couldn't hold on to happiness for a long time
It just slipped out of my hands
Silently and stealthily
It escaped without saying anything
Not warning me to be ready

I couldn't hold on to my parents for a long
My parents loosened their grips on me
I loosened my grip on them
We slowly began to separate
Day by day
Silence fills up the gap

I couldn't hold on to my past
I can't always bring my past with me
I can't always think about my past everyday
I can't... because...
It'll jsut ruin me in every way
And I'll never go on

But I realized that gripping onto everything
Makes my life harder
I can't live with complete happiness
But I can't live with complete nightmares

Holding on isn't always good as I thought
It just made me do things
Out of the blue
And losing them all instantly
Then I'll be alone
Nothing comes by for me to hold on.
