Hold On, Hold On, Hold On..... Poem by Antonio Liao

vanish all my fears, drown all my sweat, wash
my strength out to my knee and worship my throne
for thy comes the birth of a new courage of men;
mighty and powerful amongst any other gushing
bloods ever pour out to fight

hold on, hold to the last, but never beg, yet! whore
of yourself and hold on to faith, only a portion of the
salt melted and the whole grain regained, not
persuaded to vengeance as your back to your
savor home

keep a little distance, wait until the dawn set to dash
to the morning sun, for the night comes no return
and the memory keep lingering on; in the crystallize
moon of the sweetest darkest night you might fall

gossip the wind and call the rain to hear your every
silent, the clouds always cloth with that sky, dazzle
as it haggle the wary eyes, letting it stay in my face it
break, wonder as it goes the air-chalk shoot the pain
in my hair

plead as you murmur and stay as you wave for a
single candy, call for a minute of stay, nay! it’s an
order but a quest to pardon my inequities a calling of
mercy with thee.......
