A barred window.

Small.

Street level....

“I’d like to be…”

Lost among the trees.

Climbing the mountains. ...

A small piece of land.

Rocks.

Arid land....

I was there.

Saw the waves,

Embrace her feet, ...

Even “She” gets angry,

Red,

Fed up. ...

“Keep them away.”

What are you afraid of?

You’ve lived....

Beautiful shades of color.

Harmonious.

Blending....

Jagged edges protrude.

But I meander,

Trying to find a way....

Wrapped around you.

Intertwined.

Holding tight. ...

You must love me!

Really?

You’re holding me....

A fake smile.

Hollow,

Inviting eyes....

Submerged,

Drifting,

Without direction....

Climb on me.

Dangle.

Bear fruit....

A bench by the lake,

Baring colorful thoughts,

Dreamt by small,...

You look like a bug.

I’m not.

What are you?...

Eat me.

I taste sweet,

Feel crunchy,...

It’s getting dark.

I can hardly see.

But I feel you....

Early lessons I learned:

“Be understood.

Successful....

I may be colorful,

Eye-catching,

Even beautiful....
