Tread softly

Tread softly, gently
Walking on glass
Shards glistening under my feet
Step lightly, dont break the skin
I might bleed on you
Stain you with uncertainty
Flowing crimson and warm
From my veins to your skin
Tread softly, gently
So sharp and jagged
The edges digging in
Forcing through the tension of flesh
With the finish out of sight
Out of reach
Tread softly, gently
Eyes welling with tears
Squeeze them shut, hold it in
Bottle the tears, crystal fears
That are crushing under my feet
Protect you from my pain
Shield you with my wavering strength

Man I am so frustrated. These are all excellent poems, yet I don't understand them. Maybe I'm trying to look too deep. Maybe it's just over my head. But nonetheless this is a great poem. Very well written and easy to read and try to understand. Thank you for posting. I love it. |
