The sweet kernel of our thoughts

Don’t crush the sweet kernel of our thoughts
And push me to the back of your mind.

Don’t walk our love down the street
And not introduce me to everyone we meet.

Don’t lift the lids off my sleeping eyes
And fill my insides with unsipped wine

Don’t undo the stitches that run down my spine
And put me away for another lonely time.

Don’t crush the sweet kernel of our thoughts
Until you’re sure we’ll never grow back again.

That was lovely writing. Loved the way there's a connect between the beginning and the end, almost circular.
You haven't been writing much, but whatever it is that you've been posting, has been wonderful.
Keep posting. You write beautiful.
