Eleven Words - One Poem: Elfchen

[Lucycat]

Wear?
My trousers
Are worn out.
Also worn in of
Course !

 

[EmmaDancing]

Course
I have
The option to,
Question is, do I
Try?

 

[digger]

Try
To leave.
I am chained.
So I try to
Stay.

 

[EmmaDancing]

Stay
Please, sister
Keep holding on
Don't give up, my
Darling.

 

[digger]

Darling
Most loved
The favourite one
Apple of his eye
Once

 

[Lucycat]

Once
Or twice
I thought that
I was the apple
of...

 

[EmmaDancing]

Of
My vulnerability
I am doubtless.
But I am learning
Strength

 

[digger]

"Strength
In numbers"
I count obsessively.
One. Two. Three. Four.
Five...

 

[EmmaDancing]

Five
Fingers, Toes,
Two arms, two
Legs, one head, one
Heart.

 

[Kintsugi]

Heart
Beats irregularly.
Breath is steady.
I fall to sleep
Again.

 

[EmmaDancing]

Again
Your words
Burning like steel.
Why aren't I ever
Enough?

 

[MissKB]

Enough!
That's it!
Don't want more.
My life is full
Done.
