Holding on

People hold on dearly to

Insignificant events & things

In the hope of 

Having meaning in life

People hold on dearly to

Irreconcilable ideas & inane thoughts

In the hope of

Feeling ahead of others

People hold on dearly to

Invisible beings & inexplicable phenomenons

In the hope of

Understanding some larger wisdom

People hold on dearly to

Irredeemable relations & uncaring others

In the hope of

Being seen good in others’ eyes

Hold on or don’t hold on

It only matters if doing so

Helped one get temporary respite

From the looming oblivion
