Inspired by real life events and Jane Eyre


Vulnerable

She seems so strong
unbreakable
like she could receive and take anything anyone throws at her

I observe her from where I stand
and she observes, looks deep into me
and catches my heart that I didn't even know was falling

She seems so sweet and gentle
warm and innocent
like every look she lays upon someone would soften them

And I must hold myself back
from reaching out to pull her under my protection

She thwarts my every attack, attempt to wound and chase away
yet never seems so vulnerable as when I forget to look upon her

She is my master
and I am hers
