ORIGINAL POETRY TIME!!! Strip me barren of my walls Show your seeds into my garden Sing your melody within the halls And make me believe I’m not a burden Wear my feelings on my sleeve so you can watch me crumble Breathless as you leave My words escaping jumbled Return to me calloused Sharpened by the world Stressed to nearly breaking From the curveballs they had hurled I will wrap you in my nub I will remind you of your value Tell you of your greatest strengths And softly, gently, hold you.
