Longing for Togetherness

This poem was written on the same night as Learning to Walk and has much the same theme. It was an emotionally dark night for me (almost typed dark knight, there. Entirely different.) and my writing helped me to feel safe enough to go to sleep and think maybe tomorrow would be a little better.

Close.
Close.
Closer.
I fear.
I fear.
I'm afraid.
Tumbling.
Tumbling.
Tumbling over.

It all rolls over in my mind

Help me.
Don't fix me.
I'm not broken.
I'm not broken, I'm just afraid

Hold me.
Hold me.
I'm frightened.
Come nestle down in my mind
