The Bee That Clung To My Arm

A bee landed on my arm.

I wondered if it was happy to be with me, or annoyed by my sudden movement.

As I tried to swing it away,

It held on, regardless of my actions.

I kept it on longer, seeing the way it seemed to trust me.

Until I decided once more to swing it away,

Although it forcefully stayed on once more, threatened to sting.

Eventually I forced it off,

Almost killing it. 

Even though I deeply wanted it to be with me.
