Unfulfilled Longings

I skirt along the edge of something wonderful
but I know not what destiny resides at its core
I have made my wish, rubbed the lamp of fate
will it be granted?

I see a host of blessings amidst
threads woven at the loom of hope
their aura but barely reaches me
from within the garden of miracles

I almost smell the cool dewy beyond
bathe in the promise of a heart's paradise
the comforting green upon my feet
in the looking glass of diamond drops

will my wish be granted?
I long for this palpitating flutter to be calmed
the storm of mind overcast to be appeased
with but a word from the angel of promise

Must I Choose?

I am torn, conflicted between one who is beside me and one that should be, I cannot decide. She is my anchor, speaks the words that comfort my heart. The other teases me, a fun loving heart they both make a perfect woman. But I must decide. Must I choose? She bats her eyes and I die, the other winks and my knees give way. Must I choose? She makes my heart faint with longing, The other cherishes me beyond what I can imagine, they both fill my heart with joy. If I part with her, I will die. If the other leaves me, my soul will be robbed of light. Must I decide? They both are the perfect woman. ~ Pandit. And so continues the emotional binge. Image: Diver From Beneath by Petr Kratochvil
