Delicate child
You used to be a summer breeze
Wildflowers in your hair
Cupping grasshoppers in your palms
Just for a closer look
Remember that water balloon fight?
You cradled your pink latex baby
Carried like a precious being
Spilled tears when she broke in your arms
How you danced to no music
Spinning in the hallways
Pure, shy, and sensitive
How do I coax you out again?
You've hidden for so long
