Is this wonderful?

No, this is better,
It is the sight of her.

Is she beautiful?

No, she is better than that.

She is the look of a slow saxophone song.

It is just a dream to me
But its soft
And its soothing
And it sooths that which has been for so long

"the fragility"

Endless light, end this life
They sound so similar
Once spoken
Only a slightest inflection
Makes difference
