Emile Pinet Poet Tail-rhyme

The Whims Of Fate

Love is tethered to my heart, forever
fueled by hope, and yet, hope has never
created a bond; time could not sever.
A wish, faint and fading.

Ignoring its thorns, I embraced a rose,
and in the throes of ecstasy, time froze,
Love's magic is spellbinding, I suppose.
A wish, faint and fading.

Happiness is an elusive feeling
when a hurting heart, in need of healing,
confronts the truth; trust has been concealing.
A wish, faint and fading.

I plunge into the depths of depression
wherein shadows become an obsession:
and reality's subject to question.
A wish, faint and fading.

I seek someone to share my heart and soul;
allowing me to relinquish control
to the whims of fate: and for once, feel whole.
A wish, faint and fading.
