With Armor

I hadn't written poetry in a while...I wrote a chapbook a few years ago that's available on Amazon now, but poetry...well, I have to be struck with some sort of inspiration. Nonetheless...here's something:


I don’t care if I’m seen
Or breathe near you
I expect the lesser
Not the greater
Just happy to be near
Or next to you
I’m falling in a circle
Perhaps a pile
At your feet
I know the deal
It’s true to me
And who I wish to be
I falter
I fail
I’m lies and deceit
You’re everything and nothing
As I’m at your feet
And just when it’s safe
I hold my hand to you
You give me strength
As you move in me
With calm
With armor
Within you.
