Concrete Abstract

House of Cards

Trust looks like a house of cards that is being built

It feels delicate to the touch, as if one incorrect move will it bring it all down

Spending countless hours building it up, almost tasting the success.

Hoping that there won’t be the sound of It collapsing.

Moving closer, the smell of brand new cards grew stronger,

With one incorrect move, I saw the house of cards fall.

    Andrew – a great poem. I like how you went your own way and didn’t replicate my structure.
