The Decision

by Lea Tonin1

tepid entanglements hold no hearts desire

like the ocean without tides so the beating stills

warmth absent the promise of fire corrupts

carelessly passed the hopeful without glance

 

slipped flaming tendrils - fingers deliciously burn

her desired remembrance of the given collides

twist and turn mixed tepid and burn in battle

flipping the choice from safe to exquisite crash 

 

tug and tear in stunning anguish to decide

traitorous body in defiance against decision

bear the pain of frantic needs or return to neutral

Cryptical eyes cry no more, her shadow drifts relentlessly...back
