    WHAT DO I DO?

    We were just glances towards
    an imagined romance,
    there is no measure of absurdity
    in love games’ insecurity,
    What do I do….to get next to you?

    Two weeks later, same time, same place
    I’m blessed with your beautiful face, with
    a bonus of a pungent fragrance, could the
    scent be a sign for me to pursue?
    I don’t know…What do I do?

    Is this all just my imagination,
    another romantic false alarm I’m facing,
    why must I be so tormented by my
    lack of courage in these situations,
    If only your eyes gave a sign telling
    me what I should do?

    Days turn in to months and through
    this fast passage of time brings
    more tears of fear and resign as my
    nerve declines, all because I’m forever
    not sure What do I do?

    Months turn to years, paths changed,
    lack of nerve, turns to what I don’t deserve
    causes even more sleepless nights
    and so I became convinced that I
    had no right to ever consider
    because I was not sure enough
    nor believed enough in the mystery
    of my very first thought of the very
    first glance, which was a divine hint...

    Now hindsight is my affirmation to what
    always was and what will always be
    the answer to the life changing question
    of self directed insecurity.......What Do I Do?

    Insecurity is a very familiar word here.....great read...thank you again for your inspiration. God has a plan and we are only to have the patience (what a word, huh)?

    It's interesting when you are constantly asking yourself what to do, where to go, how to feel, what to say... What's meant to be will be, even if it's only for a short time. But it WILL be. Interesting, no? *smile*

    Thank you!

    A poem begins as a lump in the throat, a sense of wrong, a homesickness, a lovesickness. It finds the thought and the thought finds the words.

    Robert Frost (1875-1963) American Poet.
