the outside
so pretty others startle
others and me
so tight wound others unravel
others and me
there are signs of what's inside sure
but never a roadmap
instead
You come together in bits and pieces
like seeing a rocky cliff through the trees
already wanting to be at the top
To know it
like touching a rocky spike and a gap wide enough to lose my arm in
already wanting to see the face through the water
To jump
thank you for letting me see your valleys and your spikes

Poetrypoems for this time and to an incredibly beautiful girl. a reminder that people are mostly good. feelings are mostly good. life is good and life changes every day. Feelings protect you, and it's okay not to be okay.
