[bravely worded ☕️ @bravelyworded]

When you’re down and out
When life throws daggers
When you feel you’ll never see
The light of Joy
Keep holding on
Steadfast to the message:
Winning is your birthright.
#SlamWords #76ed #rd5 #encore

[Maryanne Frederick @MAFAuthor]

I refuse
to keep holding on
to yesterday.
But the shadows are there
Becoming invasive until it’s
infused in the very breaths
I take.
I won’t stop breathing
so I answer the past
with a sigh.

#SlamWords

[ShammiPara @Shammi35659470]

keep holding on
fear not
you're
never alone

Growing up they called me Pippi Longstockings:
I was too wild,
too reckless,
had too many freckles.

I haven't changed much.

[Norman Lordan(N.J.Lordan) @NJLordan]

As the years become decades
And their faces start to fade
Into the mists of yesterday,
I keep holding on to the feeling
Of joy when they were here.
I write a song of Love,
Tale keeper of family lore
As new stars begin to shine
In the heavens above.

#SlamWords #encore round 4

We always thought

Of growing up

How great all that would be

Doing what we wanted

Old enough and free

Suddenly it happened

Sometimes was good in parts

Often it was all too much

With sadness

And broken hearts

[Arvind Iyer @ArvindIyer15]

melancholy moon
find rest in daybreak,
what use is it
holding on
to the night's hues?

I'll keep holding on

for peace

#SlamWords #encore round 3

Burdened with thoughts

Of back in the day

Times were better then

Free of pain from ageing

Fun and laughter when

Summer held a fervour

Winter could stay at minus 10

[Sway @AnyWayInTheSway]

we reach the edge
of our destiny
stepping off
we leap
you're still holding on
but I'm ready
our hands slip
I am released
you watch me fall
into infinity
#SlamWords rd 5 #poetry #encore #SaturdayVibes #SaturdayMood

[Bill @HotmaiBill]

#SlamWords round 5 encore
why keep holding on to promises, like roses, wilted,
petals have rusted, and gratefully fallen graveward,
let it go, and clear the head, with a benevolent sun,
holding on to holding on, is clinging to spent ash.
