Holding On
Can something last too long?
Remain past the time
it should have been gone?
The leaf that hangs onto the tree
after all others have blown free.
Feelings we keep deep inside
instead of letting them subside.
We think persistence is always good, but
we might be better off if we understood
that sometimes it is necessary to let go.
