It’s your fragility that compels me
to be continuously afraid of you;

Breathing your space between my netherworld
could I be brought back to life like that,
your slightest touch is my memory
beneath the tumulus lies buried;

Perceptions vary the understanding between us,
of all the wishes that I were to ever encounter
the vein that bloods the earth and reaps its harvest
would never scorch the field barren;

I am afraid to even touch you; your fragility
compels me to be afraid of you; if you can
just enclose me for the moment and
many moments more borne out of you.

It brings tremendous emotions. Everything is fragile, illusions of a physical world, but a reality of the mind. Shall we dream forever...
