I'd failed to believe buying tremerariously into each frisson of passion like some maudlin junkie of love I'd cast pearls before swine~ or had it been the other way around? The scales may tip even, but probity on my part manages to range from nil to none These are my demons, my own secret hell that most would percieve as a fooforaw, even dismissable After all, these arms have held no one but whom I've sworn oath to Still, my heart had been indiscreet, conspiring to conflate refractorily against me in an attempt to bring to ruin everything I'd been taught from childhood We'd traveled extensively the roads of why & how both of us coming up short & wanting at the end yet my conscience munches greedily upon my sanity, my beliefs until I am raw from thought what languishes in his heart, I cannot know nor do I care what matters is his unyeilding devotion to us, untiring determination to win me, nuture me, fulfill me in one inexplicable sweep, love me he proves himself a shelter, my sequioa one able to ride the tide of my ebullience with expertise as well as inhale & hold when I dive the depths of despair presumptuous of me to look outwardly for a sign attempting to read another book when I'd barely perused beyond the title of my own I hadn't believed, but now, with all my heart, I do... ~Tier{R.T.} 5/02 "I shall never bond again, as I have bonded with you..." |

Quite a struggle to wrap up so neatly in the last two lines. Then again, who can argue with a decision of the heart? |

Thank you both, this was a struggle to write because this was more fact than fluff. For that reason, I appreciate your comments greatly! *hugs* ~Tier "I shall never bond again, as I have bonded with you..." |
