buried under cracked dust,
I remain unsound,
but mesmerized by the texture
of earth’s colors.
.
wilted flowers turn to ashes
in my palms;
I can do nothing
but crack
under the pressure
of your fingertips.

A lovely write! I loved this one, it's so very well written. You write beautifully, I don't even see the picture, but I know what you have written on and can picture it all in my head.
Lovely.
All the best
