what feels right in this moment, yet haunts long after
for vainly following the heart leads to costly compromises of the spirit
momentary weakness.
a feeling too shallow to be pain,
yet too deep to be anything else
lingering heartbreak.
the glimmer of memory, triggered by a moment of recognition
a fierce recollection of once heartfelt emotion
sharp contradiction felt by the presence of the present
rehabilitation
finding footing after the shipwreck
unclipping wings long forgotten
discovery of self
a look of question, yet a heart full of assuredness
a soul ready to sacrifice, eyes brimming with compromise
fear that is natural yet covered in authentic love
the future
it is only the last if it lasts.
