fear, not
      waking again;
                cored-understanding.
          fear, found
               pseudo-rational,
   in light of possibility.
           in light of Self-doubt;
           when the Conscience whispers.
                 constant murmurs,
"did you love them?"
                 when shut-eyed,
"will they remember?"
    anxious thought, rampant
                              at ending; yearning,
             rampant in drifting. yearning,
   for the lighthearted, only; yearning,
       from Self's-center, only,
                    there already.
