Hold Me For A While

Just Let Me Hold You
by Josh Krajcik








Hold Me For A While


I am a full grown woman
And I can make it on my own
I've spent most of my life that way
A warrior, aloof, alone.

But what is life if no one needs you?
 And you don't need anyone?
Then this life has lost it's meaning
And there's no room for love or fun.

You have to let your guard down
Let someone in your heart
Eventually or you will see
Your book end before it starts.

You have to make the decision
To protect yourself or risk
Love breaking your heart by loving
Or from the love you made it miss.

Either way, at the end of the day
Whether woman, man or child
We all need the arms of others
To just hold us for a while.

I'd rather hurt by losing
Than never giving it a try
Even when your every Hello
Is followed by Goodbye.

If needing love is weakness
Then let my weakness be
I'll be the warrior tomorrow, love
If tonight, you'll just hold me.

And when it comes your time to hurt
My love will lift you high
Bare my strengthened warrior's shoulder
As a place for you to cry.

One alone is not very strong
But two entwined can be
And a three-fold cord cannot be broken
When it's you and God and me.

You may think that I am foolish
When I reveal my soul to view
But I trust you with my weaknesses
As I do the same for you.

We were not created to be alone
But to need what we don't possess
From others who need what we can give
And to those, should gladly bless.

Tomorrow, I may be a lion again
A formidable foe to fight
But I just need to know that I can let go
Here in your arms tonight.
