Chloe Hofland // FINGERTIPS

The world sitting comfortably at my fingertips
Full control
Power slips out of my lips
No cares, no worries, emptied my soul
They did not stay home long
They slipped away
My world no longer a sweet song,
Rather a word no one wanted to say

I held on tight
Strings accentuated by frey
I couldn’t win the fight
I had to accept this was ok.

It did not come easy,
But with time I learned to adapt
At points without my power, I felt uneasy
I felt so vulnerable, a present that had been unwrapped
Change was necessary,
To become a better me,
It may have been scary,
I was closed off for so long, I finally found the key.
