The door beckons
To mistakes scattering the frame
Leading towards safety
And the ways we became
So bitter
So bound
Waiting for the moment
We are found
In the deepest intimacy
Without frailty
Then comes the sickening feeling
Of reality
How we reach
For that which we can't see
Asking for forgiveness
And begging to be free
From regret
From bleeding hearts
I ask not to fall
As soon as it starts
Begging the breaks
To bring this to a stop
But one look in your eyes
And my fears drop
There's nothing like understanding
The simple beauty of touch
Something so little
Can mean so much

Has a simple form of expression but somehow extends the attention.

"From regret
