If I could reach you and hold you
I would never drop you like they have
Nothing so fragile should be abandoned without care

Like a bird's nest cupped between two plams
Or a sliver of stained glass
I'll keep you safe from harm and smooth out your sharp edges
But only if you want me to

I've been through this too
The one that gets thrown away when the day ends
I'll be the last one to treat you that way
You deserve more than I have to offer
