She: a Series of Vignettes

She is hot and cold,
keenly engaged then a
distant horizon.

She is like cotton candy,
so sweet and pretty but in 
one bite evades me.

She doesn't respond
to my deep probing questions
impenetrable.

But when she is with me
the whole world reverberates
the passion we share.

Immersed in love's gaze
I see her soul leaping
spontaneously.

Always a question
whenever we meet is
who are you today. 

When do I decide
if there's enough growth to stay
or just walk away.
