Trepidations

Fantasies take fledgling feelings far beyond infatuation. And passion's flame soon ignites: burning with pure exultation. Hypnotized by your sexy smile, I truly believed you loved me. And that altered reality showed me what I wanted to see. When sharing intimate moments, my doubts would simply slip away. Yet, you took advantage of me and deftly led my heart astray. Stunned by betrayal and deceit, a sea of tears morphed into fear. And as lies muddied the waters, my future was no longer clear. An eruption of emotions explodes: in all of its fury. And facing an onslaught of hurt, anger became judge and jury. Despite all my trepidations, I admit, I will miss your charm. Yet, though it's hard to forget you, it's harder to forgive the harm.

What a strong way to start your poem with a beautiful alliteration: "Fantasies Fuel Fledgling Feelings Far beyond inFatuation." And, Emile, your closing is as strong with "Yet though it’s hard to forget you it's harder to forgive the harm." Superbly done.

Your emotions seep through so beautifully Emile.. its amazing if you take a step and you really look at things not working out the way you hoped they would. When that happens I try and remember the good memories.. hope your day is a beautiful one ;)
