small

make me small
make me fit on the head of a pin
then jab it at my heart
tick!
tick!
tick!
make me small
wadded into a ball
of aluminum foil still warm
and salty from a potato
then wing me
at the nearest family member
and we will all laugh
I want to cry
My heart stays just below my eyes
and if I think too much
or if I feel
I'll just leak and then
have to explain
or worse
no one
will
ask.
