Hold On or Let Go

I'm sorry
If you see these words
While I hold your heart
In the palm of my hands
Trembling
Because I can be destructive
Without meaning to

My hands are itching
To squeeze shut
Or to drop all it holds
Because
I feel nothing
But the pins and needles
Of my numb fingers

I dont think
I can continue
Holding your heart
And I'd much rather
Hurt you by letting go
Than destroy you
With the tightest squeeze
Of holding on
