One lives in the hope of becoming a memory.

concealed,
from the world.
sheltered,
by innocence,
by kindness,
by purity.

yet such
a complete
destiny,
is unattainable.
yearning,
forever
craving
prosperity,
and peace.

in spite
of that wish,
there are those,
standing,
in the open.
clawing
at the ground
to grasp,
the depth,
of their soul.

visible,
to the world.
vulnerable,
to guilt,
to pain,
to impurity.
