Poem Artwork

Touch me gently
I bruise with ease
I’m as fragile as an infant
Taking my first tentative steps
Steps in your direction
I readily admit
But with hesitation
Not sure of your intent
I waver for a moment
On the brink of all you offer
Before I fall into your arms
And beg
Touch me gently
My love is in your hands
I bruise so very easily
And take so long to heal
