Grasping At The Hem

one of my attempts at poetry, one that I'm actually half proud of...


Grasping At The Hem


i need the healing you hold
but i don’t want a spectacle
and i don’t want to waste your time
it can be between you and me
a source of quiet praise
i know you deal with a lot of people
all the time
so just let me touch your cloak
i know that that’s enough
that’s all it takes
so don’t mind me
i’m just one in a sea of faces
all begging for your healing
i don’t want it to be earth-shattering
or anything along those lines
all i need is to be healed on the inside
i need you to stitch my heart back together
so just ignore me as i grasp at your hem…
