You

Okay... so I was trying to write a Pantoum... but turns out this is still not a pantoum. Maybe at some point I'll go back and fix this, or finish it and fix it, but for now here's something at least.
I hope you all realize that these blog poems are usually very much first drafts and not my best work. I'm saving that for the publishers. Anyway, here you go:

You

You held me like a feather in the wind
And kissed my head as if to kiss my scars
You pulled my heart the way the planets bend
And freed my soul from fear's constricting bars

You kissed my head as if to kiss my scars
And healed the pain I hid behind a wall
And freed my soul from fear's constricting bars
So I could live to fly and not to fall

You healed the pain I hid behind a wall
You pulled my heart the way the planets bend
So I could live to fly and not to fall
You held me like a feather in the wind
