Fragile )(Its okay to break me)(

By ashottothetemple

It's all okay
You can touch me
But be careful
I'm prone to breaking
I'll shatter into
More pieces than
You have cells
And
I love you but
The words won't come out
As I glaze over
Your face shimmers away


You can touch me
Since
It's okay to break me
I'd let you smash me
With a sledgehammer
With a sledgehammer
With a bloody rock
If you want
I love you so fucking much
But I hate myself
For being so
Deliciously delicate

You can touch me
It's all good
I can break away
And leave more
For you to love.

    I love it, and this is certainly a feeling I know. I'm feeling that random repetition and just the fluid tone of the piece, so sincere and real, "It's all good, I can break away, And leave more For you to love." Fucking hell every poem is a new ride entirely with you, but always in an exciting car, always a thrill. Write on...
