Reverence

rebmasters

You treat my body with reverence,
yours to worship with deference.

Your tortured soul
I want to hold.

Our own pain is negligible,
the pain of the one we care about: unbearable.

    really good shorty!
    it may seem straightforward, but in actuality
    it cuts deep with precision
    to the nucleus origins of the pain..
    a succinct write and a really good read
