She

She's taken too much from me.
I can see it now.
Digging out the loose dirt.
To the edges of the earth.

She's expecting so much from me.
I don't want to let her down.
Clanging on the copper wall.
And feeling quite small.

She believes in me she says.
But what does that mean?
Tracing chases through the ground.
And up side down.

She will protect me she says.
And I wonder of she sees.
Through the darkness of the light.
And underneath the sky.
