Listening to the beat of truth floating through
my mind of both bliss and sorrow aware of the
potential risk that imminent pain may cause yet
turning a blind eye and shaking away the lies
that keep returning to haunt my surreal feelings
of passion and warmth with an image of sweetness
and love truly endless so time slowly passes not
knowing what is to come whether bitter tears or serene laughs will become my reality of conflict
between past experiences and present circumstances
and all those questions left floating amidst the fog
of fear and risk while I gently lay down looking at
the pale and empty wall resembling the unknown
in my mind with the tension of emptiness and the
scorching clench in my stomach unable to differentiate
happiness from sadness anxiety from excitement
nor elation from apprehension and haunching something so foreboding yet so right feeling a sentiment so pleasant yet so sorrowful and knowing
something so romantic yet so brutal which leaves me in a state of the unknown once again an abundance of
questions left unanswered that only the vicious cycle of time can tell
