I want your shoulder
To bury my head
A place to hide as I find shelter
From the shards of my hope
As they fly away
Threatening to cut through
And reveal my core
Where my stories are sharp
And hidden from others
I long for your shoulder
Where the pieces can fall
And you won't find discomfort
And force the pieces back
With glue and barbed wire
To fit an unknown puzzle
Where they don't fit
But instead, where you let them lie
Until they melt
Into the place they're meant to be.
