. Poetical ramblings... I cast you out and try to fight Yet your light ,that flame within your breast it burns so bright A thousand words come back to me Do not go there,  it's too close ,too near The day is lost and night draws nigh Here I am praying ,hoping for that help looking up to the sky. Still feebly wondering is it some trick Some maddening game that will end real quick? Yet as I ponder this great theme Your youth and beauty can be seen. Your hands and eyes are calm and strong And  voice such charm, I could be wrong. A thousand times I wonder why Myriad pondering I cannot let by If I should go where you do call What will it cost, the price of it all? Photo: Lennart Heim unsplash

It's the dismal beat of a familiar tune. One I have come to know too soon Those silvery notes are one I know The phantom song I thought was dead cast down the pit of years, Still rings out clearly in my head I hear the voice and its strange to me I am tempted to know if it really could be  Delusion is a feast I do not need For I cannot go there again  The spirit of life is divine to me.  I have yet to finish and claim my name I know not if you are friend or foe Your voice is alien yet you will not go. And though you poured to me your all, still, I cannot pull you from your brink. Yet, nor can I in good conscience Stand idly by and watch you sink. I fear my intuition, my mind's delay  I have often been led to walk  astray I am uneasy with those silvery tones That evoke feelings new and  strong. I cannot  follow this novel path The way to forever is way too long. photo: Pixabay - Pexels
