Daily Prompt: Fragile

She’s always trying to be so strong

even when she doesn’t have the energy to give her all.

No one notices because she wears her strength so proudly

She tries to be anything but fragile.

For she doesn’t want to seem like something that can fall apart

and be broken.

But, sometimes life throws a curve ball into your plan and all you

can be is a fragile mess.

And you think about the things that could have been and what never was and, then you

pick yourself off the floor or bed.

Returning to you is your strength to go on with nothing seeming to knock you down but

having some fragile moments is what really truly gets you through life’s tough moments.
