fragile house of cards
emotions barely balanced
waiting to topple

down a vortex swimmer
sprung from a glasshouse of lies
where are you my love

Lying is easy.
The truth is a fragile thing.
Hard, but delicate!

I've known such a Child.
Drawn like a moth to my flame,
Brushing against my heart.

Two tears spill over --
Just two. More would scare him off.
Then he flits away.

caught in a maelstrom
empathy versus duty
passionate turmoil

strong on the outside
hiding the conflict inside
tight as a tripwire

coming home to you
wounded and vulnerable
seeking your succor

Fragility
