Can I Be Fragile For A Moment?

Can I be fragile for a moment?

The sun is running away from me.

I am left in constant night,

My eyes held wide to catch the light.

I feel feelings lurking among the stars;

In the bits of dark between them.

They watch and wait for me to blink,

But my eyes are strong and dry.

If you hold me, will I cry?

Will I laugh and never cry again?

There's More

I am the open book,

The clearest water.

But there are gems 

and darknesses

Hidden in the 

depths.

I guard them by 

not guarding.

They flash through 

my eyes without 

finding expression,

Swimming in my 

sea of words.

The fun would be to 

spear them--

Watch the Poseidon 

of my heart rear 

up with trident 

blazing.

You didn't know I had a god in here.

Neither did I.
