Handmade Poem by Maya Hanson

Handmade



I have created this voice for you.
Sometimes I lead it over
the cliffs and pools I fall into,
Sometimes I overuse cursive with
the words I cannot make come true,
I have created this voice for you.

I have remade these hands for you.
Leaving the chase behind
as I take my time with forming you,
Winding, shivering, shifting
to tie up something brand new,
I have remade these hands for you.

I have handmade this heart for you.
Everyone else is not enough when
I need words to give them clues,
Everyone else could be enough but
when you sing I don't need to,
I have handmade this heart for you.
