The hands that hold meA Poem by Ashley Lytle
If you asked me who could hurt me the most
I could name only two whose words would bury me forever Yes there's a dozen who could push me into the deep hole Who could knock me off my cliff But the two that come to mind Our the hands that pulls me up The arms that can catch me when I'm falling The people I find solace in during the darkest of times They're the foundation of my house And the devastation that would come Would be such of a mighty earthquake Knocking me down to nothing but scraps For someone else to take as their own Their words would pierce my heart Leaving me dying out in the open All it would take is one word From either of those people For my world to collapse around me And to find me dead amongst the ashes © 2015 Ashley Lytle |
