Holding On Poem by Dale Mullock

There are times when you’re feeling down,
and the whole world is making you frown,
times when all hope appears to have gone,
and you no longer have the will to go on.
Teetering on the brink, wanting to end it all,
there seems to be nothing to catch your fall,
take another look; see your friends all around you,
holding true, especially when you’re cold and blue,
bringing you warmth and sunshine on a cloudy day,
along with love and laughter when the sky is grey.
So the summer is not over until the sun stops shining,
the day is not over until the moon comes out of hiding,
I’ll hold on to my faith, always believing,
so I won’t stop, I’ll keep on dreaming,
for all those around me, are forever keeping,
me holding on until my heart stops beating.
