Looking through the rear view mirror, I wonder.
What if I had taken off the mask,
Exposing  the glow of infatuation
What would have happened if I had made the first move?
Crossing the line that you could not.

Images of Lust
Burning Passion
Satisfaction
Fantasies

A less turbulent, predictable path was taken
I kept the illusion of oblivion
Afraid of consequence.

I sit here without regret
I am left with daydreams.

Daydreams can come in quite handy at times!
Fantasies can stir the imagination and warm you on cold nights!

The perspective you bring is a hard line.
Well written, but a little vague.

it is dangerous that you title this electra, while speaking of moves not made.

remember, she was the daughter of agamemnon who LOVED her father.

perhaps you meant none of that, but your title recalls it.
