Lifted Words

I wanna be picked up 

clear off the ground

and it should be

easy

if I'm honest

cause 

There's not much to me

I'm nothing really 

nothing special 

nothing needed

not firmly seated

to this earth

no gravity 

only hurts

I could 

float 

for what it's worth

I am easy

to dismantle

nothing delicate

to handle

just bits 

of broken 

heart

held in torn

pockets

nothing stopping

me losing 

bits of me 

as I walk these streets

I crave

heavy hands

to make me 

feel the weight

of need

of want 

of hope 

but no

I'm empty

eager bones

waiting to be 

lifted swiftly 

sated quickly 

without regrets

concern

or care

I am nothing 

really 

a hungry smile

a hungry stare

an empty 

hourglass

wishing 

for sand

to fill

these curves

weigh them down 

for the time

it takes

to turn 

once, twice

again

greedy, eager moments

mostly

I want to be lifted 

clear off 

the ground

and it should be easy

I'm weightless

shapeless

sad 

pieces 

you can fashion

into something 

you can use

I want to be lifted

and lowered

on repeat

by you
