Don't push too hard
I'll fall

Don't pull too hard
I'll snap

Don't try to corner me
I'll escape

Don't try to chase me
You'll never catch me

Just hold me
embrace me
cherish me
Love me

its the only way
to keep me here

In one piece

Broken
In a world
that refuses
To fix
Me

I placed myself in her arms
Grateful
to be in her presence
It been so long
since I've spoken
To my dear
Mother Earth

I wish for him to know
The profundity of my affection

I wish he could behold
The exuberance he bestows upon me
With little more than his smile

I desire for him to comprehend
The fervor he has rejuvenated within me

I wish he could feel
The heat of the blaze
He has artfully reignited

I hoped he would heed
The harmonious melodies of my heart
Yet, regrettably,
his senses
Are but tuned
to mere echoes

I beheld the delicate undulations of the water,
As it waltzed upon my likeness,
Sparkling and shimmering,

It writhed and swayed,
Warped and distorted,

Rendering my countenance
Into a ghastly specter

I did not embody

Yearning
I found myself at the precipice
Paralyzed by trepidation
As he descended
Disappearing
Forsaken
He carried away his affection
I remained seated
Gazing into
The empty glass before me

I loved the way
His music
made me feel
I could hardly see his face
In the sparse light
Yet his passion shone through
So brilliantly

I watched him
As he got carried away
With the melody of his soul
I embraced it
As it swept me off my feet
And ****** me into a world of light
And love

Tension
Went
Unspoken
Hidden
Silenced
Suppressed

He doesn't know

He's in love
