Hold On Tight

The heavens darken, tumultuous winds howl,

The weight of existence we must bear.

A dirge in the form of raindrops pour,

Heartbreak's lament resounding everywhere.

.

Lonely and bleak is the world we view,

Its emptiness a mirror of what's inside of you.

But don't surrender to hopelessness, take heart,

Dawn breaks, a new day filled with promise will start.

.

So stand tall, my friend, grasp tight to the fray,

Let your soul not surrender to the night's sway.

For life is a journey full of twists and bends,

And though these trying times may bring us to our knees, we'll rise and mend.
