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

Hold Back
An
Escarpment of memories
Distills in form
A different layered light
Before the storm.
I have visited vagaries
Of such places where,
Measuring worlds and
Matching faces
Upon the inward surface
Of a glassy eye
May bring me tears to cry.
To hold them from escape
I try,
But I,
Cannot be their jailer,
Stand without argument,
A drunken sailor.
Leaning on rebuke,

Hold Back the Sun
Hold back the sun
The night and me are not done
I don’t need to be seen
Just sitting and thinking where I’ve been
For the night time
Most surely is the right time
As I go through the thought
Nothing more but less than I have sought
Know what I am
I don’t need to feel the grand slam
Until then I just sit

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 back the tears
When I saw you climbing up the stairs
I

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 ‘Reciprocity’
And saw my self
Looking back at me
Examining my
Authenticity
I have spawned
Alternative

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, but both
of us well... not so much...
I knew that I...

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 with cheer
and the tears begin to show.
Can't hold back my

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 color of the leaves
in brilliant reds and

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 start.
All you do is hold back,
Hold back the fever,
All you

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 must rise.
The sun it seems got lost,
Carousing out and about
after

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
Express it outside
It you got the idea
Share it out
If you

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 deep
In your arms, they will keep
In my nest of paradise
Where

May only require sprinkles
Tiny showers

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 softly still, resting on the golden hills
softer than a white
