Delicate

I am delicate,

not fragile,

please handle me as such.

 

I was crafted,

perfected,

but I will crumble under your touch.

 

I am easy to break

because I am not meant to be broken,

but hold me,

and love me,

and I would offer my heart, 

it would be yours to crack open

  • I sit

    I sit 

    I sit and 

    I sit and think 

    I sit and think and 

    I sit and think and wonder 

    I sit and think and wonder and 

    I sit and think and wonder and worry 

  • To being carefree

    today, i let my brother spray me with a hose 

    and it reminded me of that time at camp,

    when we jumped in the pool, still in our clothes 

     

    it reminded me of water balloon fights, 

  • The Battle

    He attacks me suddenly 

    Erupts like booming thunder

    And all I do is wonder

    If things will ever change 

    Because I feel his heavy power

    Quick hands 

    Sharp teeth

    Ready to devour
