Just Hold onto Me

Someone hold me…
Just hold me
No need for words
No questions why
Just hold me
Don’t let go
Until I feel the need to cry
Has vanished
And is no more

If I start to speak
Don’t say a word
Let me express everything
I’ve been holding in for so long
Let me pour it all out
It won’t happen again for a while
Hopefully not this bad
Perhaps I held too much in this time
And the bottle got too heavy to hold
So it fell and cracked open

Just hold me
Don’t let me go
No need for words
No questions why
Just hold me
Don’t let me go
Until I feel the need to cry
Has vanished
And is no more

Can you just listen
Not say anything at all
Caress my head, my arms, my back
And just hold on to me
I need someone to grasp onto
Someone to be here, to love me
Can you do that for me?
You have no idea how much
I need this right now
How much I need to weep

Just hold me
Don’t let me go
No need for words
No questions why
Just hold me
Don’t let me go
Until I feel the need to cry
Has vanished
And is no more
