I thought of asking for a reading list, one crafted by you.
I’d make a specific request:
Something meaningful but not the kind with heavy weight,
for my heart is ragged, tattered, exhausted– not just from what I’ve experienced but
the simple evils of the world and life’s cruelty where love is kept from those who deserve it.
Are you afraid to feel?
Yes,
to bring me closer, closer to you.
