was slippery
and i was
afraid
you'd get
squooshed
as you attempted to cross it
it was
quite an
effort
picking you
up because
you kept jumping
finally
i managed
i carried
you to the
others
they recoiled
said
you
were ugly
said
they
hated
your kind
i said
you
were
worth
saving
everyone is
you
jumped
a few
times
and i
picked
you
back up
finally
you tried
a new tactic
you played dead
you did
it for so long
the thought
crossed my
mind i might
have
held you
too tight
but then
i saw
your
leg move
and i
knew
you
were ok
as we headed
out
to
a place
i knew
you'd be safe
to
the world
of green
and brown
i looked
to check
on you
you
had jumped
once again
but
this time
you
landed
on brown
and
were camoflauged
i worried
cause
this is
fake
brown and
the brown
you seek
was only
a few steps
away
but you
didn't trust
me
the steps
were small
for
me
but
were
miles
wide
for you
