Ridged and Raw

Ridged and Raw

A Poem by Cloudtreesium
"

Write me something

"

Write me something that will force the breath out of my chest

Make my heart sing

Make it ache

Let the words tug at the yarn buried beneath my bones

So that they may unravel me

Gently like summer’s breath

And then forcefully sew the tangled threads

With spinney needles reminiscent of winter’s icy glare

I am the ball in your court

Throw me to your wolves or toss me to your victory

Grab my soul and use it as your pen

Stunning details

Flawless descriptions

Like a shimmering waterfall cascading down my back

Eliciting shivers loose on my spine

Write me something that will render my lungs

Useless

Write me something that will clog my throat

With burning tears

Stuff my nose with sadness

Blow me away with what you have to say

I’m a timid autumn leaf shaking in your grasp

So for the love of everything ridged and raw

Write me something
