Holding it together so my parents don't have to sit and wonder what they did wrong at my funeral.

Holding it together so all the sacrifices my mom and dad made were worth it

Holding it together so my friends don't blame themselves for not noticing.

Holding it together so my younger siblings have someone to look up too

Holding it together so i can see my younger sister achieve her dreams

Holding it together because little me wants to see me achieve things in life like how she dreamed off.

Holding it together so i can be older. i deserve to be older.

Holding it together so when my dog waits at the window every day he won't have to worry and wonder why i suddenly stop coming home.

Holding it together because I still haven't experienced romantic love

And lastly,

Holding it together to prove to myself that i'm worth something
