Ambivalence

There can be

Little said about

The hearts desire

amidst the bustle

of waking life

as the sun

scorches the sky

and burns a hole

in her confusion.

 

A lazy, discontented

lover strangled by

words that stick

in his throat languishes

in the heat as she

cools off in the breeze

of his indifference.

 

Exposed, alone in a

translucent ocean of

discontent, she floats on

the surface of indecision

and ambivalence

 

When at last the

changing tide sweeps

him off to another shore

leaving her free to dive

deep for her pearl and

 

Much more… much more.
