PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

I dare to touch this life we have

so fragile and delicate, I might lose the magic

I may break the work we so carefully built

by one little nudge in the wrong direction.



I don't want that tower to tumble

Don't think I could stand watching it all fall

but something keeps tugging me deep inside

telling me it's heading that way

and there's nothing we can do to stop it.



I won't stop working toward it

but I will tread gently upon uneasy ground

because I don't want to lose all that is precious

such a beautiful thing, so easily destroyed

a life built on promises and dreams

soon to come into reality

but not so soon at all...
