careful one i am yours
the gentleness of your hands signals from my heart to my soul of your congeniality
my ceramic body has been taped up and over, all around.
slowly you wrap the bubble wrap around my body
a mutual understanding of my past shattering
what he had done to me on the cement—
although you speak no words sweet boy
you stick the fragility sticker on my package
with care you will send me off
although i'm not made to be kept
my cracks too much for your eyes to bear
you restored parts of me i may not have.
