Avoidance
Comfortable, cozy you are
in the safety of four walls
pasted in lavish satin
soft hues, golden threads
and exquisite embroidery
far away from risk of battle
hammering just outside
your front step, always
calculating ifs and whys
falling or losing
fear controlling, mind abuser
yet love beckons you
though you dare not embrace it
and affection dwells in your heart
though you dare not bestow it
unto the dry petals of your life
why are you still breathing?
