Hold Me Tight, I Will Fight

When the sky turns gray, please do not bring me rain.

When the day gets cold, do not bring me a coat.

When there is silence, do not vanish in violence.

Just stay there and tell me, “WE GOT THIS.”

I will smile and hug you for a while,

Then forget—and regret.

When in the darkness I walk again,

Trying to forget will be in vain.

Just hold me tight, you know I will fight.

Promise me you will never let me go,

You know I will try to do so…

That is me—but please do not be…

Do not be like me.

And I know, I am gonna try to let go,

Push you away as far as I may.

But please… please… please…

Please do not make it ease.

But in the end, when I push you away,

Hold me close, do not dismay.

For all my fears, and all my pain,

Stay with me through every rain.

And when I alter, when I fight,

Promise you’ll stay and make it right.
