hold!??

You hold yourself uptight not to make a fall,
But they keep falling harder for your stance overall.
You hold your walls high so they can't enter,
But their curiosity keeps surging like never before.
You hold up your emotions to avoid being a fool,
But they want to caress your head with love.
You hold your actions so they can't inflate you,
But they love appreciating your deeds
It's not untrue
You hold onto your words to avoid being a blabbermouth,
But they long to hear you talk to them.
You hold yourself from loving the world so it doesn't break you,
But everyone you trust seems to love to break you into tiny little pieces
Oh, it's so true.
