Dilemma
DILEMMA
Maybe I shouldn't be doing this,
But what is more left to deny;
I could reason out a list
Yet so unfair.
I have to go, for my will flies
Still a voice recedes my steps,
Is it worth giving a chance at all,
Or just better backing off.
The love that I barely know,
Has it the power to take my all?
For once it made me taste the sky
But who could trust, when falling is a part.
I can't be mean, my heart cries for a skim,
Should I put a world before the love,
A veil and disguise, a trepidation I couldn't name,
What is the difference though, I still feel your love.
Sure a mark hit my face, a dent in my heart
At every passing moment, when realization hit.
I don't mean enough, I despair,
For my bare existence could thrive with thy love.
A women loves and it makes her stronger,
Though you may stay, a mile apart
But before I close that distance
Tell me, will that levitate the worth, I have.
Still this urge, oh so maddening
A curse that i'm blessed with
To see beyond your flaws for my belief holds
There still maybe some feeling.
I think i have to rise, no depravity;
But have i had the sense,
I wouldn't have fallen to the core.
My heart beseeches the cruel mind to listen once more.
Am I not strong?
So I must move.
Defeating the fears, filling in the warmth;
Not for thee but for my own beloved soul.
