Holding On


She could resist it no more,
Her eyes were too heavy,
They longed to leave the present world.

The pull was too strong,
A beginning awaited on the other side,
She was reluctant to leave the story she had this side.

It wasn't over yet, 
She couldn't leave yet, 
This couldn't be how it ended, 
She needed to know the end.

It was a losing battle, she knew it as much,
Wasn't long before she gave in, and was pulled into dreamland,
But not before tucking her reader in her arms,
Trying, as though, to carry her story beyond!
