Profound

Inspired by Neville Pettitt's poem 'A Thirst Well Quenched'.

I buried my fears 

in the crook of 

your arms. 

Author's Note

A lot of ways of saying I love you, and here's an example. ;)

it is profound Doc. ... to describe a setting for everyone instantly based on one's own experience of having a safe place in the arms of another .... but this can be taken another way as well ;) did i just trust to the soft part opposite the elbow ... or did i lay me self bare to a ................crook ;))
seriously .. i love the moment you share ... emotive universal and three lines/eight words ... it is "Profound" indeed!

And I love your thoughts here, Einstein! They do provide another another to the piece. I agree, how often we lay ourselves bare to crooks - can't deny I've been stung in the past myself :x
Thank you so much for the lovely review and for appreciating :))
