Letting go

In a quiver lies
what hits the eyes
the target struck
an arrow stuck
it can release
with greatest ease
but it will not
it likes this spot

don't say a word
inside you're hurt
I said I care
I will be there
get out the shell
all will be well
yet stuck in place
the arrow stays

I came to your aid
when you were afraid
you told me why
you hated to cry
and yet you don't bend
not deserting your friend
although he's a foe
you're not letting him go
