Premium Member Hold Back the Sun
The curtains riffled by a breeze, intrudes upon the solitude
 ....Please, let us warn them, if we must, to restrain the hour once again, 
     for we intrust to weave this time to be our sacred interlude

So, a dawning sun lays...

Hold Back
I don't want to lose you,
We vowed this life is ours to share,
If these words are really true,
We could have a perfect love affair.

You said you really want me,
Yet you're letting us fall apart,
Am I too blind to see,
If only I had known from the...

Premium Member Can'T Hold Back My Tears
Sometimes I wish I could hold back my tears.
Like when I get hurt by someone dear
or when there's no one near 
to comfort my fears.
Can't hold back my tears
when that miracle happens 
and my heart is filled with joy 
and I'm overwhelmed.
My very soul fills...

I Will Not Hold Back
I will not hold back

My dreams have traveled
As far as the heavens exists . . .
And beyond

I have created my own dimensions
That I may dwell
In a certain certifiable solitudionous state
Where I visit 
To reclaim my ‘Self’
And recover my divine balance

I have looked into the eyes
Of...

Don'T Hold Back (Diatelle)
Give
Till it hurts
Give all you’ve got
When you’re done, give them more
They will then appreciate you
Not for what you gave, but for your giving
After all, it’s not what you give, but if you give
That lets a person know that you do care
Making them always feel so...

Hold Back the Night
Hold back the night

She was a chestnut haired beauty,
standing there all alone...
I knew that I... had to get close to her,

She had a stare that could melt 
your heart... if she wanted to...
I felt... something deep and warm start to stir

The night was still young,...

Don'T Hold Back
Don't hold back
Gave  but
 don't expect back
Before I was born
It was said 
givers never lack
Doe some use it as
An avenue of extortion 
Yet like a truth
The great are those that gave
Their are more to come 
When you gave


Don't hold back
If you got it inside...

Dont Hold Back
In the darkness not a soul in sight
Outnumbered but still join the fight
All around you there’s no where to turn
It’s time to sink or swim I know you’ll learn 
Stand your ground there’s no where to run
Gave it your all don’t hold back for anyone...

I Cant Hold Back the Tears
My heart is bleeding and my spirit is burning
Day light breaks and births another day
And I kneel down, and pray for you to come my way 
 I could not hold back the tears 
When I turn around and you weren’t there
I could not hold...

O Death! Hold Back Thy Sting!!
Crippled by a serious deformity,
And imposed masterly inactivity,
Gloomed by utter poverty,
Many wail in anguishing adversity.

A waif, a forlorn wanderer,
A clueless shipwrecked brother,
A totteringly striding blind,
A helping hand is all they need!

Not for the riches, not for the power,
Not to revel in Heavenly pleasure,
But to them,...

Hold Back the Dawn
One early morning in May
Just before the break of day,
I spied a haggard looking Sun
Appearing to be on the run,
Bedraggled but feigning zest
Oh, was seen rising from the west!

Sneaking behind some clouds,
Like a thief hiding in shrouds,
Scurrying towards home eastwise, 
From where each morn he...

Hold Back the Rain
Hold back the rain
   just a little while.
Let the clouds gray the sky
   but hold the flood gates closed.
Hold back the chilled wind
   up in the trees high above.
Let the warm remain
   just a little longer.
Hold the...

Premium Member Hold Back the Dawn
My love, my life
You whom I adore
Hear me now
I ask but one thing of you
For this, only you can do
I implore and beseech
As for your arms I reach
Hold back
Hold back the dawn

Let me stay in your arms
Where there is safety and warmth
Where my dreams nestle...
