poetry and other musings from the mind of rebecca noel

Am I doomed to always be too much?

Am I destined to listen to the birds croon as I
clench my own hand through the dark?

How I long to repair my lead glass heart,
its cullet scattered beneath my skin

Oh, to be a kaleidoscope,
held to the mirror so even in the shards,
I may be beautiful

Will my love always be received with latex gloves?
