Securely Insecure

To her he is the rock,
a rock full of razors
rising up in the middle
of a confusion profound,

and she will cling to him
with all her might
rather than lose herself
to the selfless sea of excitement
and join the world
and be washed away.

As a mountain he refuses to move,
she receives comfort in that,
like a child from a father;
Just knowing he is there
brings softness
to the raging ocean
of in-confident insecurities.

But she would bleed
upon his obsidian soul
for that one and only island
to keep her close.
