On the Rebound

On the rebound, a little scared
Am I moving too fast?
Foot on the gas
Should I stop here?

Never felt so good! Never like this!
On top of this mountain!
Feels so damn good!
Maybe just catch my breath!

Euphoria meets forlorn
Though Hearts and minds in sync
Pen and paper the medium
Dare to love another mortal blindly?

Take a good hard look!
See the whole picture?
Follow head or heart?
Too late!  I’m already there!

Only through the rebound we find resilience ... another masterpiece of love.

I hear ya! I guess it's best to take the risk to love...it's what I trying to do. To be brave and happy for every bit of love I'm given.

Is luv in bloom on Soup again?.. by the words of your poem I think so... luv the way your words and questions entice the reader to decide.. yes or no for the poet... then the last line already seals the fate.. happy endings always make me cry.. but this one is terrific.. let me in on your secret Audrey my friend.... luv...
