Am a turtle
With a hard nutted shell
Cracked
Bits by bits
From first heart break
Broken
From second
Smashed wholely
From third
One last piece is all that remains
Scared to entrust them in your care
In hope and love
Letting it go
Please don't make me fall
Else
I'll be empty
A fearful turtle
Afraid to rise again
