That sometimes
words are not enough.
Most of the time, actually.
Because people need reassurance, always.
And not just the ordinary kind
of reassurance.
It must be the kind that is certain,
that is constant
that never falters.
The kind that is strong enough to weather life's series
of resonant, unending storms.
It should be the kind
that people can hold on to, always.
Most especially in moments
when every bone inside them begins to shatter.

The kind that is strong enough to weather life's series

It should be the kind

Most especially in moments
when every bone inside them begins to shatter.
