Open

I am open, so open
If you seem not to be looking
But catch my eye
And I snap together
Steel trap jaws
Teeth closed.

I am free, so free
And running and dancing
But catch my hand
Even to run with me
And I freeze
Motionless, I cease to be.

I am light, so light
I laugh and float
But catch my smile
And I drop like stone
Gather moss
And wait for you to go.
