I am not fragile
I am not a porcelain doll
Or a baby bird
I am not something to be wrapped in cotton wool
He broke me. I built myself up
They tried. I endured. Only cracking
She tried. She failed.
By the time you met me
I am more glue and duct tape
Whisky and ink
And grim resolve
Than I am person.
I am not fragile.
I have survived.
I will continue to do so.
No.
I am not fragile.

No.

Just something. I didn't realise it needed saying.
