Won't Let Go

A Poem by E.G. James

There was no reason to believe
That time would heal a thing for me
And I have wounds still yet to heal
Feels like I'm dying
So many things I've should have done
Like ask for help ask anyone
I was ashamed of how I feel
So I hid my crying

But as I crawl through my life
I walk in the night
I run to the happiness I call light

Because my love, oh no my love won't let me let go
It's all that I know
And though I've had enough
I can't seem to give up
Won't let go

Now how I wish I'd told the truth
I've wasted so much of my youth
Yes I was lying to us all
Saying I'm okay
I'd fake a smile just to survive
I'd do anything to feel alive
Am I addicted to the fall
Cause I fall every day

But as I crawl through my life
I walk in the night
I run to the happiness I call light

Because my love, oh no my love won't let me let go
It's all that I know
And though I've had enough
I can't seem to give up
Won't let go

Deep, deep, deep down I want to live
But this world is insane
And somethings has got to give
With all of this pain
I don't think I'll make it for much longer
And I just wish I could be stronger

Because my love, oh no my love won't let me let go
It's all that I know
And though I've had enough
I can't seem to give up
My love won't let go

Won't let go
No I won't let go

Alright E G Chance, this is the third poem of yours that I've read and the score is three for three. I don't understand why you haven't received more reviews,because your work is good. Honestly, tonight I was just picking random poems to read not paying attention to who wrote them but your titles caught my attention and your style is unmistakable. And I've enjoyed them all.
