I Am Weak, But I Will Not Fall Willingly
I am weak
my legs quake, tired yet hopeful
I search the forest for answers
wise and worthy of its blessing
rest easy
intuition comes in waves
like the tide it has its highs and lows
and cannot be rushed
still I want
a conch to whisper secrets
gentle kisses
fill my cup
pirates pillage peace
and crush treasure
I cannot give up
my dreams are not for sale
even when
stolen and mocked
broken and defiled
wishes are kept under lock and key
and I know where
I’ll never tell
no one deserves my truth
I need a sign
rest easy
I’ll wait 1,000 lifetimes
the forest knows
my dream
my secrets
take my life
tighten the noose
I will not buckle
I am strong
and I will not fall willingly.
