You didn't hold on loudly.
You didn't ask to be seen.
You just stayed.
That was enough.
You kept your balance quietly
On days that leaned too far
No one noticed how careful
Every step really was
Nothing heroic
Nothing to prove
Holding on, softly
Without a sound
Through the long nights
That tried to wear you down
Holding on, softly
Still here somehow
You learned to carry silence
Like something fragile
Not letting it fall
Not asking it to leave
You chose to stay gentle
Even when it was hard
Holding on, softly
In your own way
Not moving forward
Not walking away
Holding on, softly
That counts as brave
You don't need to explain
Why you didn't let go
Holding on, softly
At your own pace
There's no rush
You're in the right place
