You are clean white linden
You are fresh, unlit candles
You are white countertops
Tall ceilings
Polo shirts and
Designer cologne
I am ***** old combat boots and
Pully strings unraveling clothing
I am cheap haircuts
No, mental breakdowns and safety scissors
2am smuged mirrors
Collected...I could never be
Never be white dresses
Can’t be new cars or a sharp witty tongue
Can’t be
God teach me how to stop
Being crumbling crackers
Everytime you try to hold me
Tightly
Can I ever not fall apart
When shown any human decency
Please dust up my tiny crumbling pieces
And still hold me
