Frightened of Vulnerability

~~Within a thousand winks, came the panic of emotion. She awoke,
Screaming. Fear was suffocating her lungs. Tears fell from her
Eyes. Finally, her voice returned. But darkness, its texture, it’s
Allure, it seized her passions. She would leap—and devastate a
Sacred heart. He pleaded. But death grew limbs. Frantically,
She closed the sky. Thus, his dreams gave up the ghost. She
Rocked gently, afraid of the love that was rising in her person.
She was desperate to escape herself. But a mirror had settled
Within her psyche. Suddenly, there was a knock at the door.
It was her knight—the soul she slew. She was hesitant to
Answer, but her intensities betrayed her reason. He fell to the
Carpet, soaked in sweat, grappling for her legs. She begged him
To forsake love, but her voice was broken. Thus she pulled him to
Her bosom. Their lips, the breath of life, gave birth to passion.

The imagery in this is amazing.

I've never seen a writing about fear of committment written so vividly.

Job well done.
