Staying Close

 
When I wrap my arms around you Can you feel my fingers grasping the fabric of your clothes You whisper, “you embrace me like I am going to blow away”. But the fabric I have so tightly grasped, was not to keep you here But to go with you, when you departed

    Nice thought. The piece bends the thought process while one's reading, an oft-used device but one that never loses its ability to delight.
