This one was published through poetry.com awhile back...hope you like.


I am not what I appear to be.
Punk.
It's a front.
A scared child on teh brink of madness.
a scarred childhood.
Not the worst.
Not by far.
Yet times could have been better.
Misplaced trust, love.
Nets that have snared me.
So love me for my front,
but make sure it's me you love.

Touch leaves a vulnerability
The sensitivity offers a propensity
To open, tear, heal
A complacent scar
Love gained, gleaned and gifted
Bleeding or underlying..

Your offering, open,
I enjoyed your heart.
