Vulnerable

Wednesday, September 14, 2011

Tears like rubies fall into my palm
I hold them close but they slip through
the cracks in my armor
You watch me break apart
with an unsure glance
and all I want is your arms around me
and all you want is to pull me close
but we stand frozen like ice
because our hearts are sewn
together with clumsy stitches
by shaking hands
and if we take this step
our fragile eyes will shatter
like broken windows
and our souls will be vulnerable once again
