Handle with Care

My heart it hides,
Tucked away.
It beats in the dark,
No light of day.

Weak and worn,
It cowers in fear.
Lashing out, snarling
At those who come near.

Secure for awhile,
Till you came along,
Coaxing it forth,
Patient and strong.

Yearning to trust,
Full of fear,
It begs for your touch,
Wanting you near.

My heart sees you,
It knows Love.
Just be gentle,
Wear kid gloves.
