PRECARIOUSLY WONDERING!

"To courage and conviction"
Why do I feel this intermittent pain inside?
My desire to gaze, mine eyes I hide
This roaring feeling like a mighty storm
Is this the way, love is born?
When it is evident that someone truly cares
Lucid feelings create trembling and fears,
Contemplating what is in the other heart
Is a fascioliasis and a daunting task

How do I find strength, to express how I feel?
I'm not sure if the other heart will yield,
Confusion emanates - this heart of mine
Do I really see, or am I just blind?

Perhaps in this situation I will never know
Defined by logic, I see no where to go,
O! How I want to express this adamantine roller-coaster
My heart's bleeding, what a dreadful disaster!

"So often in life we are engulfed in fear that placates our ability to express, to say how we feel, and that most precious moment, just slips by. The fear is born out of the thought about what others may think, or perhaps we are afraid of being rejected. We may want to contemplate on the happiness we may have found by taking a chance or the regret and sorrow we may end up living with, for not having the courage to take that chance. Like the ancient enigma, "It is better to fail after having tried, than to fail for never having tried."
