Lily Mayfield Poet Rhyme

Holding On

I'm holding on.
My mind won't win.
I'll wait until dawn,
I'll make my move then.

I want to be set free.
Look this way,
Come and save me.
Take me away.

I'm not strong enough.
Can I take your hand?
My demons are too tough.
I can barely stand.

I won't bring you down,
I just need to be saved.
You wore that crown,
And I misbehaved.

One last time.
I'm going crazy.
It's a tough climb,
And the mountains are hazy.

I'm holding on tight.
Don't look away.
I hope I'll win this fight,
But it won't be today.
