The river of life has rocky rapids
Quick to wash the unaware downstream
To face the inevitable, the waterfall
So grab a rock, a branch, and hold on

Hold on like your life depended on it
Which of course, it really does
Don't loosen your grip for even a second
Or risk being battered by the stones unseen

Love, now that's a different kind of river
One that, just as quickly can wash you away
To drift alone, with no rescue in sight
So hold on to love, as you hold on to life.

But holding on to love is a bit easier
Because love is also holding on to you
Vowing never to let you go, to drift away
And more often than not, love means it.


What the first two stanzas is telling us is about the challenges of life. Letting you understand that during that very hard times, and things turns not to go straight and then all you just have to do is not to give up, therefore you Hold On So Tight.
The last two stanzas is telling us about love and how easy it can be to endure in love life since it involves two hearts. Hold On So Tight

But sometimes, you can be holding on love and love wouldn't be holding you back.. thats d irony of life.
He wanted an intimate date
She wanted to intimidate

You are right though... Before your firstly decision of holding on to love, there must have been some kind of mutual understanding prior the time you need to hold on tight.
Remember Holding on is to have hope on something you are giving efforts too..
Thanks for reading through

Absolutely true! Corroborates my own opinion of 'holding on' as regards love and relationships

Really deep words, and important for life because our relationships are dependent upon the bonding and understanding between each other if this understanding shakes then relationships are also move towards break. So understanding is the breathing for relationships. Thanks for sharing.

Have a great day and stay blessed.

When understanding is in place and when there's misunderstanding, You also need to hold on tight on your love so that you both can survive through difficult relationship times.

I'm glad you got the point

Yes you said right. Thank you. 🙂

I hold on with a white knuckle death grip.

Gonna have to pry my fingers off.

Sharing your work = courage

Thank you

Thanks a lot...

With respect to the last two stanzas, The greatest feeling in the world,is to be loved by everyone around you unconditionally. When the words disappear, love is all we can bear. When the moments fade, memories are what we hold dear. So, hold on to your love it brings happiness... @airhawk-project this is educative poem..... Continue to exolore steemit
