Tenderness weighs heavy
like the intensity of a crack
pressing down against
gravity
heart falls like glass
shatters
and scrapes and scratches
reflection of myself
questioning
happiness
purpose
What is life then
but some strange
experience
stand outside the screen
and watch
myself
disconnected from the
feelings
I live in the senses
which has lost me
drawing in the protective shell
I put guards down
and let it in.
