Best Hesitant Poems

A big conclusion by tomorrow I must hurry up and reach.
 It's about what I am to ‘do’ with my doggy “boy, Billy ‘Blue’.”
Half-wittingly I just keep vacillating between two notions.
 My mind is ‘churning’; my thoughts ‘turning’ like a tsunami.
 A bouncy cute but...

As I wander this earth in total darkness
I wonder if your really here.
Theres a feeling of emptiness and fear
that guides me towards total loneliness.

I’ve allowed you to see my thoughts.
Yet I’m still hesitant to believe in you.
Are you really there for me completely?
Or have I...

An unusual brand of happiness,
The release of lettting go.
A rush of realization,
Maybe finally you know.
A glimpse of something better,
Came shining through his eyes.
Accepting this fresh exhilaration,
Whilest praying against lies.
Distinguishing between sincerity
and that familiar self-destruction
Gets harder with every heart-break
and each eventual obstruction....

HESITANT DREAMS 

The impatient gates of 
Expectations,
Opened wide before the
Hesitant dreams,
And
Begged them, forward to rush, 
For to
Cross the threshold of 
The awaiting reality!

Love's flirty wink.
Healing heart, cautious. 
Give in to temptation?

Hesitant feet on uncertain ground.
A hesitant heart making no sound.
Daring to beat too hard and too fast.
Daring to dream and pray love will last.

Butterfly tingles, senses reel:
Dare I tell him how I feel?

Eyes veiled with longing;
An empty hand grasps ~
For a chance at tomorrow
And his...

For this contest I’m asked to abide by the rules

and thus I sit and pen my thoughts obediently

but cannot check the renegade’s sweet rebellion


Limit cussing and cursing:
	
               however I am told...

Would it be too much 
If I told you
I missed you? 

What if I said it 
While 
Lying in your shirt? 

Would your heart 
Be fluttering 
The same way mine has been? 

Like it has since 
The moment I knew 
I was going to get...

Aye
and to sigh,
yet never goodbye...
our reluctance to say..
to close..to leave..
to part..to kiss
farewell;
weider-sehn ,perhaps
au-revoir..later..
see you..wave..then watch
'til
we turn away
and cannot see
no more...
Aye
and to sigh....

There’s a bend on the end of the rainbow
Reflecting refractions of light
Promises written on water
Holiday nights of delight
Words shadow boxing on speakers
Rebounding resounding in rhyme
Spider webs sailing on sunsets
Floating on shadows of time
Alone on the edge of tomorrow
Hands holding tight to today
Sunlight as stardust exploding
In...

October nights set trees aglow
as Jack Frost's etchings start to show.
Not ready to pass the baton;
Autumn's hesitant to move on.
And Scarecrows swaying in the breeze; 
let crows come and go as they please.

In farmer's fields, nothing will grow;
Nature begins taking things slow.
Colors seem scribbled in...

Slowly, treading softly
I must guard my hesitant heart 
Taking forward moves with caution
If any rebuilding is to start

I'm still wading wounded waters
Tidal waves of fear and doubt
Self-restraint and trust, a struggle 
The gash was deep, still trickling out 

Like a surfer prepares to meet the...

It’s as familiar as the beat of your heart—  

	the echoing claps of heels on the floor,

a swift rapture when the doors open.

I almost feel like the clouds give way

	and I look the sun in her eye.

The euphoric feeling the ocean embodies

when night meets...

Sometimes, i wonder what i'm doing here
Far away from my friends old and dear
Hesitant and reluctant to let go of my past
Which i can feel behind me fading fast. 

As i sit here, fully lost in thoughts
I can feel my heart turn into knots
When i...
