Hold The Precious Close

Patrice Clarkson's Blog

Hold the precious close
Make no mistake
The heart is needed
To cover all the hurts
That
The silly head
May make.

The Necessity

The necessity has come 
Has gone 
All that’s left is
Beyond my grasp, my hold 
It’s gone
It’s gone. 

Make no mistake 
I needed all 
But holding on
Wasn’t me 
Wasn’t
What I could become 
No, no 
Not at all.

Decisions

Decisions to make
Change my life as I know it
Must make no mistake.

Decisions I make
Will be what I live with
A lot is at stake.

Decisions
Decisions to make.

Hold the precious close
Make no mistake

To cover all the hurts

May make.

Let Me Tell You A Story

Let me tell you a story
Of things I cannot grasp
Holding on to everything
Just as if it was the last
Time I’d see you
The last moment to escape
All things I abhor about you
Holding onto ones
That make me understand you
But please make no mistake
It is a story
A story I will relate.
