Holding On

Sue Mosley

Rhymed
Holding on to memories
Of yesterday
Holding on to times
That are long gone
Holding onto the present
I seem to know
Holding onto the future
That has yet to be seen
Holding onto all of my dreams
Holding on
Im stll here holding on
Tring to see
What my life will be
While im stll holding on
