Paperweights

You hold everything down
So as not to let it flutter away with the breezes through the windows

You have a heavy heart
And keep your eyes closed when falling in love
Because you're scared of heights
And don't want to fall,

but I'll catch you

With all the feather softness of a thousand doves

I'll catch you

hold tightly to your supple skin and cradle you for an eternity

I'll catch you
My dear, I'll catch you
