Simile

By maliceman

I'm fragile
Like glass
(If I break I might cut you)

I'm cold
Like ice
(You get too close and I'll freeze you out)

I'm distant
Like a star
(You can reach but never touch me)

I'm sharp
like a blade
(My words will cut right through you)

I'm shallow
Like a grave
(You're not good enough for me)
