@};- Might @};-
by Felar
The look in your eye tells me you're thinking,
"What is meant by this hand
on my back?
Are we just good friends and pals?
Or is there more to us than
that?"
I have known you since you uttered the words,
"Five thousand." years
ago.
I have loved you even longer than that,
Since before the past you
know.
Our worlds are so different, yet exactly the same.
Confrontation is
where we met.
My ways confuse the hell out of you,
And yours
scare me to death.
Two scholars, at war and at peace.
Starting to play both parts.
You are
learning to wield the sword,
I just learned I could drop.
In all our other conquests, solid met soft,
And I am but the same as
you,
Can we overcome the opposition?
Could we see our love through?
Still, I pause, for I'm afraid to loose,
What I have yet to
gain.
Sorrow is buried within my heart
My soul has never known such
pain.
My heart doth beckon me to hold you,
But you're too far, my friend.
The
canyons of doubt between us are vast.
And I'm sinking in the sand.
Night approaches and I'm alone again,
To face my demons myself.
Dreams
are all I've to keep me warm,
But they will never be enough.
What do I deem my own physical worth,
Of the life I would gamble
away?
Can I take the chance of loosing my soul?
What would you do if I
asked you to stay?
I can only offer you my protection.
And the key to my heart and
soul.
Mere trifles compared to the wonders you've seen.
And the treasures
you seek to hold.
I stand and wait, watching you go,
Still afraid to make my request.
I'm
content to stay and not take the chance
"Might" is too big a
risk.
