Broken

Your confidence teases

my hesitant mind.

Loving eyes that tug me

down a summer’s slide.

Your kindness wraps around

my broken thoughts.

You are a trueness that writes

from a poet’s house.

I shake-

As you wrap your wanting arms

around me dearly.

I shake-

For the day you will leave

my long dreamt inadequacies.

For one day-

you must leave.

But if you stay.
