Pailey Gordon Poet Free verse

I Am Fragile

I am fragile 
So please don’t hurt me 
Don’t insert the “I love you”’s into my head
If they aren’t true
Because once those words are said
I will believe them
And give you all the love I can,
Every last drop
I believe you will do the same

And then one day I will find
Those words were empty
That those words are just words
But to me those words mean everything
They mean I will stay for the good and the bad
They mean I want to be with you for the rest of my life
They mean that no one can get in the way of our love 
They mean I won't let anyone hurt you

Please don’t let anyone hurt me
Especially you..
Because I’m fragile
