Trepidations

Fantasies take fledgling feelings, far beyond infatuation. For when passion's flame ignites; it burns with pure exultation. Hypnotized by your sexy smile; I believed you truly loved me. And my altered reality showed me what I wanted to see. When we'd share intimate moments, my doubts would swiftly slip away. Yet, you took advantage of me, deftly leading my heart astray. Stunned by betrayal and deceit; a sea of tears morphs into fear. Your lies have muddied the waters; now my future's no longer clear. An eruption of emotions explodes in all of its fury. And facing an onslaught of hurt; anger becomes judge and jury. Yet, despite my trepidations, I admit, I will miss your charm. But when I'm tempted to forgive, my broken heart sounds the alarm.

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 ;)
