Paradise,
awaits me in your arms.
I always knew,
it would get to this.
I tried to stopped it,
but eventually gave in.
The more I avoided you,
the less you avoided me.
I couldn't handle it,
I always been weak.
Shy in my tone,
not in my passion.
Open to love,
you stepped right in.
Will I regret it?
Perhaps one day.
But for the moment,
in bliss I remain.

A quarter of a century must pass, for the writer to understand what and why he writes.

Walker,

I like the tentative captured in the phrase, "But for the moment". It reminds me of Robert Frost's ...."...nothing gold can stay.."
