Holding On

Hear me fight
to free us
from my dark despair depression.

Speak this night
for freedom
from our wrong self-blame impressions.

Hold me tight
to free me
from silent
screaming isolation.

Hug me right
to free me
for love's warm streaming restoration.

Hear us free,
hear us free,
hear us free
to be us
in light's repairing passions.
