Holding On
it’s hard
not to see flaws
brains sunk,
hope without doors
bold statements
without much cause
i am there,
but over here looks bored
i am holding on,
but holding on needs to share
it’s hard
this mess of a world
the one,
that has a stranglehold –
on such plights
brains sunk,
solutions can’t put up much of a fight
directions,
with no left or right
expansive views,
suddenly feel too tight
