Possibility of Impasse

Eyes craving for attention wondering with apprehension

Lips quivering, hand shaking but is reaching out for a touch

Lingering for a moment the silence is deafening the moment getting intense

Anxiety building with a tightening gripping through the chest

Reaching what may be an impasse, barricading a heart or let it slowly rush in

Two puddles are forming between the creases of the openings to a soul

Lingering thoughts that are holding wondering whether or not to let go

The yearning heart says yes but the head repeatedly says no

Feeling the difference is a key to the lock that sets it free

The levees finally break leaving a blissful chaos in its wake

Years of holding back finally gives way to the brightness of a midsummer's day

Pulse pounding heavily blood pumping through the veins no more reason for restrain

Tears transforming into a joyous stream trickling down, finally a smile that was buried beneath the frown

A euphoric melody floating along this heart filled with an effervescent song

The mind and heart was never connected but with the two intertwined soul is affected

A bird released from a metallic cage free to fly and take center stage

The pain in their existence leading up to this moment almost frozen in time

Now only a fleeting thought of the memories filed in recesses of the mind
