you are Soft and Sweet
like a late-summer fruit
kissed by the sun
warm, kind
I will not let anyone bruise you
don’t let a callus form
around your Light
the world needs more men
with tender hearts
who wear them proudly on their sleeves
step into the sea
be joyful
dance in the rain
cry on my shoulder
I am Your knight; you need not wear armor
my lovely boy
you deserve fireworks
in every heart
in every room
you walk into
or rather
They deserve You

Author Bio: Katie is an illustrator and writer currently living in Columbus, Ohio, though she will soon relocate to Grenoble, France, to teach English. She is eating all the macarons from her favorite bakery that she can in preparation, because she’s still a bit skeptical that the French will be able to do pastry better.
