Stubby fingers, in a world where you seek long, artsy hands; With the thumb that still looks like that of a child. No, it isn't something that should be envied. Put my palm to yours and it will not hesitate in feeling small, insignificant, giving you that ego boost you so desperately seek. But it holds the power to support. It holds within it, the power of perseverance, hard work, and creating. It does not flinch while it works like yours does. It doesn't shy away. Instead it makes the grip firm, steady. Unwilling to give up so easy. Hello, hands. I accept you.

Hands.
Stubby fingers, in a world where you seek long, artsy hands; With the thumb that still looks like that of a child. No, it isn't something that should be envied. Put my palm to yours and it will not hesitate in feeling small, insignificant, giving you that ego boost you so desperately seek. But it holds the power to support. It holds within it, the power of perseverance, hard work, and creating. It does not flinch while it works like yours does. It doesn't shy away. Instead it makes the grip firm, steady. Unwilling to give up so easy. Hello, hands. I accept you.
