Holding On
I have a wife, a son and two granddaughters, I have nightmares. A 'having' cannot be held onto, a Keep, a Fast, a Hold, all are synonyms for a fortress.... my aspirations crumble like ancient walls. When I pluck a pretty wildflower from a verdant meadow - a momentary kiss of joy, an enlightening ray of sun.... then cometh the regret, the withering, a racing time...

Holding the Matches
we find life in moments within nature in the rain or the thunder that soon follows in a bushfire from the trees that became hollow but she brings her own life and i find it incredibly peaceful like rain on a tin roof sometimes it's a loud love like a bike at full throttle she's lightning in a bottle energetic and explosive but not all...

Premium Member On seeing another poster of a child holding her lost pet
Another poster of a child holding her lost pet. When I see them, man, the sinking feeling that I get. Why can't pets just learn to stay at home? Why are they always dying to go on the roam? I haven't seen or heard of one happy ending yet. Bonus "lost pet" poem This is not why I did love you...

Are These Sins Holding Me back?
I am wondering why in those gloomy moments lived away from everybody who said prayers I haven't reached any sublime joy... or even the ecstatic feeling of purity that many saints got looking at the magnificent heaven; are these sins holding me back and pushing me down, so I can't rise up and give my praises God?

The anatomy of holding on
Inside, there’s a small museum where I keep the pieces I couldn’t let go of: the first laugh, a heartbeat that wasn’t mine, the warmth that made me think I was whole. Each memory cataloged by touch and scent, stitched together with words I never spoke. I’ve tried to map it...

Holding Tightly
I couldn’t laugh and let it go I held it tightly And shook it at the sky Until tears covered my face My voice was strained My soul deeply tired Questioning why Puzzling out motives Repeating the same situation and sentence Again and again Then I spoke with you Your hand covered half my face as you held it Speaking while...
