Must I Choose?

Image
By

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.

Ha ha ha,

I coined up 'The Truman's Paradox' to represent this situation.

Unfortunately for fate you only get what you want in two halves .. in different locations ... you have to bring the two together to balance the paradox.

Nice stuff mister ... opens a plethora of questions

I do believe that Pandit would appreciate a kindred spirit. Pray elucidate me on how you have come to balance concerning your current predicament and I will pass along your wise suggestions.

There are no solutions. I had to choose the 'one beside me' though it pained my heart so. I like simplicity in life so I had to chose. Is this a sign of weakness in me? I know not. I live with a heart that still yearns for 'the one that should be'.....

La Morena and her... Negroe

by Jerome Hambrick I could have used your company last night Could have talked or had a tongue and kitty fight And no, I'm not all right Until you come over and fix my plight Had a most stressing day And was looking towards some one on one word play Your presence is enough for me I drink you in and perspire glee I remove you from your pedestal And return you back... your love gently bruised No matter the path I find beneath my feet I sense you just over my shoulder hovering, lovingly I enclosed you in our love knowing your fear of small places That defenseless look... could almost taste it And I know it's sick but seeing you that way turns me on But understand my illness will do you no harm My nature rages to overwhelm and break right through But I would turn tide on myself before it turned on you Because you loved me and you knew I wasn't right And for that I'd kiss your feet or risk my life You see the world needs more people like you...
