Hold Me Down

Chapter 13

Hold Me Down

*Cassidy's POV*

Waking up in a sweat at 3am is not the ideal way to wake up on a Sunday. The nightmares had gotten worse and more real then ever. It's like my subconscious wants me to remember the only thing I wanted to forget. People promised that dreams can come true, but forgot to mention that nightmares are dreams too.

I lied on my bed just thinking. Thinking of my life and the world around me. How can there be 7 billion people in this world, but yet I feel so alone. I don't know when it started, but somewhere deep inside of these bones and emptiness began to grow.

I decided that my mind couldn't hold all my thoughts anymore. I needed to let them out. I decided maybe writing some song lyrics might help. I used to to write lyrics a lot, but recently I haven't been in the mood to write.

There were many thoughts bothering me so it was hard to decide which one to let out. One in particular stood out. After I decided what the lyrics would be about the words just started to tumble out.

After a lot of revising and redoing I finally looked over the sheet of paper feeling proud of my work. The scribbles down the paper seemed to accurately describe how I felt.

Hold me Down

Catch my fall, if I should trip

Mend my heart, if it should rip

Tell me you love me when there's no one around

And if I should run, hold me down

Hold my hands, if they should shake

Stitch my wounds, if I should break

Take and keep my feet on solid ground

And if I should run, hold me down

I don't wanna know, what your life was like before me

And I don't want to tell you about mine

All I want to do, is lean back in your shadow

And capture this moment in time

Point the way, if I go blind

Soothe my nerves, if I lose my mind

Show me all the treasures that you have found

And if I should run, hold me down

I don't wanna know, what your life was like before me

And I don't want to tell you about mine

All I want to do, is lean back in your shadow

And capture this moment in time

Watch over me, while I sleep

Wipe my tears, if I should weep

Hold me in your arms and don't make a sound

And if I should run, hold me down

After setting the paper on the side of my bed I got straight to work with everything that needed to be done today.

I called a car mechanics company and was happy that a person was going to come by later today to fix the car. I busied myself with cleaning the house while singing the song I wrote. My mom was supposed to come home tomorrow and you could say the house was a complete mess. Cleaning the house was definitely at the top of the to do list today.
