What Asunder May



Wash off the air when you can,
Some love look like true love,
But do I accord?
I don't.

What asunder may,
I might not be able to stand.

Last time, I hated how it pressed on my neck.
Tore my chest, and pierced through my eyes.

Wash off the air when you can,
I fear to give out my heart,
The ways of man are not as of the gods.
And neither of them does my heart trust.
