hold me quietly please
do not make more
of this
than it is.
i am lowercase
at this moment
unimportant
tiny and afraid
unable
to shout.
hold me quietly please
do not make me
analyze myself
more than i
already do.
i am struggling
but you grin, prompting
me to reach
for you.
hold me quietly please
i beg of you
keep your arms tight
around me.
you hold me
but it's too loud
and i drown
in your deafening
sounds
but you help me
crawl my way
out.
I no longer ask
for you to hold me
quietly.
