crystal tears : venting poetry

paperweight

hold it down

don't fly away

keep it together

is what they say.

tighten your grip

resist the wind's blow

if a page flies away

you have to let it go.

but that's not easy

blowing away in the breeze

the thought of you leaving

makes me freeze.

your beautiful artwork

my paperweight heart

it's just not ready

for us to part.

I wish you could stay

but the world has to see

the beauty that is you

and what you are meant to be.

so, I let the wind take over

as I watch you fly far

I wish you the best

wherever you are.
