long day

take me
your arms are strong
I’m tired
this shell is cracking
hold me
I’ve not much left
tell me
it’s almost done

Add yours

  1. alas,
    for today is creeping to its bed,
    to its forgettable place in history –
    do not fear your shell breaking.
    but tomorrow waits,
    crouching to lunch,
    and so we shall begin this dance anew
    ere the sun strikes his rays
    across this cold little ball
    we call home.
