come to me
let me hold you
grasp me tightly
and never let go.
I know your grip will loosen
and you will run from me
but I have this moment
before you desert me.
I've never asked these questions
I've never wanted more
embracing you seems to assuage me
and calm my worried mind.
you break away
you leave me standing
your life continues
while mine is stuck still in your arms.

Thanks for publishing this work.
Are you really as young as you listed in your bio?
These thoughts seem to come from someone a bit more wise than the typical teen on Gossip Girl or The Hills.
I'm really glad too because the world needs more people who can feel.
