Stick Bug
#WritcoPoemPrompt124
A walk on a beach,
Both, on your bare feet,
So close and within reach,
A conversation brief but sweet,
Comments, one nervous giggle away
So much shared when, very little you say
I can read between the lines
Now that you're mine
Deserved/ Unheard/ Is What It Is
The thoughts on your mind
Hold me, love me
Judge me not, please...
Your eyes plead silently
In silence we walk along the sand
Hand in hand
Waves lapping at our feet
With you I feel whole and complete
I'm broken too
I don't judge you
My trauma swept under the rug
When all I want and need is a hug
Your label, your past won't last
It's not who you are
You have the strength to go far
Sway in the breeze of the trees
Blend in, my stick bug
I'm your hug
You I see,
Your camouflage doesn't work on me
So just be...
Safe with me
Begin to feel free
