imperfect hands
once a girl you knew

would that I
be stronger
was once a girl
you knew
not much and yet
the world has changed
and I am changing too
though more than years
as rings to dry
stains into my bark
to hold as love the living come
each moment to impart
the devil's thorn
from lilac torn
and wings inspired by flame
held in these
imperfect hands
as I have loved
the same
