When we were so small
as to fit in the palm
of each other's hands
Held up for scrutiny
a giant eye a speck
compared to the size
of our hearts
But we grew
up and away
from the crevices
we nestled in so well
covered and protected
by our closed fists
Something small
now oddly unfamiliar
a tiny thing
just dropped somewhere
in a sudden sandstorm
Something uncertain
