Poem #172 for Kym Pappas

 

Floodgates open!

That is what we assume will happen,
supposedly, when the destined moment occurs

I know better

Takes time
Needs patience
One cannot presume to know the future

When the mind’s made up
love either dies or grows
proclamations of fearlessness wail
and when skipping through life,
nothing seems important enough…
but that is the reluctance to feel

Comfort and fantasy are quite different
and a kiss will lead to running,
to same patterns, same results
unless a new choice is made
a new life in a continuous existence

Touch these lips with an open mind;
some choices get only one chance
