Hold

one can hold

only so much

one can hold for

only some time

holding onto something

for so long

that it lasts

but holding in something

for so long

that it breaks

one can only

hold so much

one can only

hold for some time

those who hold forever

either break or bend

into whatever they hold

What if you chose to let go

What if you chose to break

so that all that you held

consumed you

what if i held you

for a moment

before you broke

we all have to hold

and, we all have to break.
