just hold me.. (writing)
Not sure I like this just yet, I see room for improvements..
But I'm going to share it anyway.. just because ;}
will you hold me in my darkness,
when I am drowning in my fears, my insecurities -
hold me, don't quiet me,
hold me, don't ignore me, judge me,
hold me tight, and be real, forget the mask -
hold me as the true and raw you
hold me, tenderly, intimately,
shield me - from myself
help me not to go within,
withdrawing into myself again
hold on and don't let me drown,
love me as the imperfect person I am
look into my eyes openly, honestly,
hold me as I shake and tremble,
as I struggle to give voice to the dark void
that smothers my very existence..
just hold me and allow me to drift
even if just for a little while
into the blissful dream, of my youth
my dreamlands,
where soft, round hills
of tall grass, and wildflowers
blow softly in the winds,
where my Knight stands steady by my side
in both battle, and in peace..
will you hold me till the storm subsides,
until the sun rises,
shining into the dark night of my soul -
without judging me, without lashing out,
will you begin then, to understand
just how much courage, and strength of spirit
it took for me to even get to this point?
to share my darkest moments,
my scars, my abuse, my imperfectness
is truly the most intense, intimate decision of my life..
I feel .. awakened
don't let me drown..(C)042213

We always see room for improvement in our own work as we see room for improvement in ourselves -- because otherwise we stagnate.
This is good and powerful. well done
I really enjoyed this piece, it is beautifully crafted.
He or she who "holds" another, who is there for them, they are a gift from heaven. Hope things are getting better, day by day.
I would certainly commit 10 on 10 for such incredible cognition.

@ccrider17 - wonderfully stated.
I like how simple and raw/unrefined this piece of writing is-- kind of helps capture the type of state of mind the person saying that is having.
@nov_way - Raw and unrefined is a good 'capture' of how this is.. and true
@ccrider17 - yes, truly a North Star on the darkest nights
@Lady_Kelacy - Thank you :}
