In what simple way do you touch The very center of love; That essence of eternal desire cloaked In regal mystery which in its foray From one heart to the next doth Ride the glorious steed of hope? Equally distanced from both Heartache and sublime, Lies the epicenter of those rumbling And quaking fears which Threaten to shake from under me The walls built with forced labor To protect my most precious kingdom. Yet… in some simple way, You have breached the perimeter, Stolen into the darkness, Your face painted in both black and green To dare the triumph of conquest On this unstable ground. Equally distanced from both Risk and surety…. I stand in confusion with trembling Anticipation of surrender. |
