holding on

Am I forgotten

a small face in a palm of scattered thoughts

travelling beneath the sky
where no one feels my weight ~

yet I've carried your world inside my skin
and I've tumbled in between rough fingertips
that never knew my worth

here and there

but never inside your private room

Brilliant, that is all I can say, just the sort of thing I would have attempted to write in a prompt just like this. Beautiful. Best to you in the contest
