The Shape Of Me


Like clay,
pliable within your hands,
I let your emotions
govern my shape.
But still I lie formless
and unfired.
My cold grey essence
fills the stillness inside.
Left alone and untouched,
I harden.
No longer can I mold
to your hands, your touch.
All I can do
is crumble.

Jax~
This is a nicely sculpted piece.
Could be that the 'potter' can rework
your crumbled pieces.
I like it.
