BEWILDERED

"When you pray for rain, you gotta deal with the mud too." The Equalizer

A battle of the heart and mind.

Rages intensely inside.

A longing for love.

An undeniable fire.

A breathtaking energy,

when two worlds collide.

A war is raging.

She's screaming inside.

A spectacular power.

Trying to keep them alive.

Moments of happiness.

Clouded by confusion.

Ripping them apart.

Drowning this union.

She feels it so deeply.

Innately yet questioning.

What if she deserves more?

She's lost without reason.

Her yearning increases.

Will this love survive?

Her 'someday' decreases,

with each twist of the knife.

She's praying for rain,

to end the drought.

One droplet of ecstasy,

before they die out.
