hikari no frustrato / unfinished thing

"... it sounds to me like you want the kind of closeness that has to be cultivated, earned, encouraged, maintained."

---


you wonderful
and terrible
unfinished
thing, beautiful
and complicated
and full of fear

waiting for
your dreams
to come true
and your hopes to
betray you

bangs and slouching
everywhere
you go, trying
not to be noticed
trying not to be
known

your heart is
a tangled knot you
worry will never
come loose

but one day you'll
look back on your
bright, tentative
and burdened
light and begin to notice
all the unfinished people
who believe in you

and learn to lean on them
and learn to believe in them too
