Careful, love,
that you are not
too well-guarded,
sounding high alerts
until no one
dares approach
your gates.
Mind not to wind
yourself too tight
out of fear
to let loose
some brittle flaw
until you splinter
and shatter.
A closed fist
a lover never made--
Loosen your grip
on your expectations
of the audience,
and simply play
your part.
Come curtain,
we may
surprise
each other.

I refuse
to hate
the sum
of my
parts.
I will not
despise how
my heart
decides to love--
she is
trying
her best.
