Holding Me Down
January 2, 2024
You make your way toward me
I do not flinch
My friends all flee
But I cannot
For you are holding me down
In my very spot
Let me leave!
I scream and shout inside
But I cannot
For you are holding me down
In my very spot
I feel lonely at times
Not when you are around
Though I get filled with jealousy
As I see others go past
And watch as they meet your gaze
And then I wish I could run away
But I cannot
For you are holding me down
In my very spot
