Holding On, But Letting Go

by fenix flight   Jul 5, 2017


That moment when you are sitting in your brothers room
Sitting on his bed and crying your heart out
Because you miss him so freaking much
and you know you're about to lose him.

He's slipping through your fingers
and you don't know how to stop it.

When all you want to do is just hold on to him
just a little more tightly
not wanting to let him go

But you know you have to let him go
or risk losing him forever

But you just want to cling to him
To keep him close to you
But he's clawing at your fingers
slipping through them like water

How do you let him go
but still hold on to him?

(I wrote this when my brother Jeremy was leaving the house due to issues in it. It broke my heart. but he has come home since I wrote this)
