Fragility
May 22, 2015
He is scared
People think one way about him, but he really isn't.
He is alone
He is falling down
He is sitting by himself.
He watched everybody like an eagle
Stalking its prey
His friends left him in ancient times.
He is different.
His power and glort is sucked out,
He is no longer himself.
He has no soul
He is alone
Fragility overpowers him.
He is a little boy again.

Even though this poem is directed at one specific person that I know, this poem can be reached out to everybody. We really don't know everybody's life stories, but once we do, we have to know that not everyone was born strong. People were once fragile, and it is important to know whether they climbed out of the fragile lifestyles or if they failed.
