I Am Me
Delicate porcelain
Hairline fractures tarnish smooth skin
Pain locked away in the past
I am fragile
Brokenhearted
Tendons stretching to the breaking point
Harsh words spoken by hate
I am sensitive
Midnight nightmares
Shadows hiding out my sight
Fears nest under feigned confidence
I am afraid
An unruly child
Hands clutch toys rightfully mine
Thoughts focused on me, myself, and I
I am selfish
Helping hands
Arms open wide waiting for love
Petty fights long forgotten
I am forgiving
