That Which Will Not RustA Poem by Katie Kistler
She walks alone through the night
Under lamplight and the moon And all it’s promises The roses that are soon to bloom Go on, the sun will find you Lying naked in the dawn Move on, the rest will find you May it keep you far from harm Underneath her armor She bears a heart and keeps it warm But these four walls are thickened Made to withstand any storm And if you cry it may not reach The little nook beneath her ribs Try as you might you can’t breach The iron weight upon her skin But go on, she might see you And someday look you in the eye Move on, for it might come true But do not think that you should try © 2018 Katie Kistler |
