Hanging on to yesterday and many days before <br />I was holding by my fingertips, what ifs and whys galore <br />So afraid of failing and falling I surely felt my doom <br />I cried for help to anyone please come and save me soon <br />People came and tried to help but I could not understand <br />It was if they were speaking a language from a foreign land <br />Then just as it seemed hopeless, and that my life was at an end <br />Someone reached not down for me but up their helping hand <br />I took that hand who did not speak but smiled more and more <br />And when I let go I then realized I was only two feet off the floor <br /> <br />7 July 2010 7: 36 AM <br /> <br />Life on Purpose Live it before you lose it! ©2009<br /><br />Bobb Marly<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/just-let-go-15/
